This study is to find out if the Attention Processing Training program is a potential treatment for brain fog symptoms, reported by people with Long-Covid. Also investigating the feasibility of completing this program virtually.
The goal of this project is to test the feasibility, acceptability and efficacy of an attention training intervention (Attention Process Training; APT-3) as a potential treatment for brain fog symptoms experienced by people with Long-Covid. There already is good empirical evidence to support the idea that the APT-3 treatment is feasible and effective in improving attention in people with acquired brain injuries, but information about its efficacy and acceptability in people with Long-Covid brain fog is lacking.

The APT-3 is an evidence-based, standardized computer-based training program that was designed to improve attention skills that underlie higher level cognitive processes (e.g., executive functions and memory).
This group will listen to a pre-determined playlist of music following the same dosing as the attention training group as stated in the arms.
