Abstract:
Two preliminary case studies are presented introducing the technique of Prospective Memory Training (PMT) as a potential means to manage severe memory impairments. PMT involves repetitive administration of prospective memory tasks in which the patient is asked to initiate a specific action at a future designated time. Background information relevant to the concept of prospective memory is presented. Possible theoretical foundations for PMT are also discussed.
