Electronic Memory and Management Aid

Description

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a personalized, web-based training intervention that was developed to teach use of an Electronic Memory and Management Aid (EMMA) application. The app-based system is designed to support everyday memory, daily activity management and positive health behavior engagement for older adults with subjective cognitive complaints or mild cognitive impairment. The investigators will also evaluate the degree to which a clinician is needed to oversee the uptake and utilization of the EMMA app during the web-based training intervention.
