The more, the merrier? Establishing a dose-response relationship for the effects of cognitive control training on depressive symptomatology.

Cognitive control impairments are frequently observed after remission from depression. There is evidence to show that cognitive control training (CCT) can reduce such impairments and related risk for recurrent episodes. However, it is currently unclear how many CCT sessions are required for short- and long-term effects.

High-Frequency Cognitive Control Training for Depression: Case Report.

Background: Cognitive control training (CCT) has gained attention in recent years as a preventative intervention in the context of major depressive disorder. To date, uncertainty exists around the working mechanisms of CCT and how its effects unfold overtime.

Objective: This study aimed to examine cognitive and affective transfer effects following an unusually high number of training sessions.
