Acquired brain injury and neurological disorders cause cognitive deficits, which in turn cause reduced participation in everyday life. Cognitive rehabilitation, where patients learn about cognition, cognitive deficits and ways to circumvent problems arising from deficits can increase participation and quality of life. ERehabCog is an internet delivered cognitive rehabilitation program intended for patients suffering mild to moderate impairments. The program consists of information and homework assignments, which take approximately 10 weeks to complete with the assistance of a therapist. Effects are evaluated through measures of everyday life participation, mood, and life satisfaction and compared with an attention training program. This study aims to contribute to the evidence base for internet delivered cognitive rehabilitation for mild to moderate cognitive impairments. Evidence based interventions are vital to use the potential of technology to the benefit of affected patients.
