Summary
Delegating cognitive rehabilitation to computerized systems and assistants impacts the therapist-patient alliance. Clear role definition is crucial for effective home-based cognitive training and to prevent information loss.
Area of Science:
- Neuroscience
- Rehabilitation Medicine
- Human-Computer Interaction
Background:
- Computerized cognitive training offers extended rehabilitation hours.
- Delegating training to spouses or assistants may alter established roles.
Purpose of the Study:
- Propose a new model for the therapeutic alliance in computerized home training.
- Inform the development of clinical training systems.
Main Methods:
- Qualitative Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA).
- Semi-structured interviews analyzing home-based computerized cognitive training experiences.
Main Results:
- Home training necessitates delegating aspects of the therapist-patient alliance.
- Assistant/system authority may diverge from the established patient/therapist alliance.
- Information transfer issues can impact long-term skills and expertise.
Conclusions:
- Clearly define roles for therapists, assistants, and computer systems.
- Propose a Cognitive Training Alliance model to address delegation challenges.

Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.

Advocates of CBT emphasize three core assumptions: first, that cognitions are identifiable and measurable; second, that they are central to psychological functioning; and third, that irrational or maladaptive beliefs can be replaced with rational and adaptive ones. This transformative approach to therapy has paved the way for specific models such as Albert...
