Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Stroop task

Time Frame: From baseline to 72 hours post intervention

Stroop Task is a neurocognitive test for the performance on inhibition control. Participants are shown a series of word colors that are either congruent or incongruent with the color of the word itself. The participant is required to respond to the color of the word and not the word itself.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Flanker Task(From baseline to 72 hours post intervention)
  • Trail making test (TMT)(From baseline to 72 hours post intervention)
  • Wisconsin Card Sorting test (WCST)(From baseline to 72 hours post intervention)
  • Change in accuracy as measured by the 2-back task(From baseline to 72 hours post intervention)
