Maintenance of Technology-Based Functional Skills Training Gains in Older Participants with and without Mild Cognitive Impairment: The Role of Booster Training

SUMMARY
The current study examined training gains maintenance over time and the role of booster sessions on sustaining training gains for the technology-based Functional Skills Assessment and Training program (FUNSAT™) in older adults with and without Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI).
The findings support the efficacy of the FUNSAT™ training program as most participants maintained or increased their training gains over time, and that the booster training was beneficial in terms of sustaining gains, indicating that booster sessions play a critical role in skills training.
