Interventions/Control_1

Visual attention function training. In addition to standard rehabilitation interventions, interventions lasting approximately 20 minutes each will be conducted 5 days a week for 3 weeks outside of clinical time. The rehabilitation tool (touch panel mode) from Attention (Creact Co., Ltd.) was used. The sequence of passive element order to random, active element deletion to coloring to deletion noise to coloring noise was repeated twice. Evaluations will be conducted before and after the intervention and at discharge.

Interventions/Control_2

Auditory attention function training.
In addition to standard rehabilitation interventions, interventions lasting approximately 20 minutes each will be conducted 5 days a week for 3 weeks outside of clinical time. The Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT), included in the Clinical Assessment for Attention - Revised (CAT-R), was used.
The process of practicing under the 2-second condition followed by the actual trial, and then practicing under the 1-second condition followed by the actual trial, will be repeated twice in sequence. Evaluations will be conducted before and after the intervention, and at discharge.
