A video game intervention for kids with neurodevelopmental disorders<\/p><\/div>

Treatments to improve emotional and behavioural self-regulation<\/p><\/div>

Children with disorders that impact neurodevelopment often have difficulties with executive functions and regulating emotions. Cognitive-based video game training has been shown to improve outcomes, however, this training has been expensive, has required professional supervision, and has been investigated only within a narrow group of children.<\/p>\n

The Mega Team study is testing the effects of a highly engaging, take-home video game-based intervention designed to improve executive functioning in children with various brain-based developmental disorders.<\/p>\n<\/div>
