Persons with MS may be able to improve self-awareness via task-oriented cognitive rehabilitation

A new study of self-awareness by Kessler Foundation researchers shows that persons with multiple sclerosis (MS) may be able to improve their self-awareness through task-oriented cognitive rehabilitation. The study was epublished ahead of print on July 2 in NeuroRehabilitation. (Yael Goverover, Helen Genova, Hali Griswold, Nancy D. Chiaravalloti & John DeLuca: Metacognitive knowledge and online awareness in persons with multiple sclerosis doi: 10.3233/NRE-141113). Self-awareness is one's ability to recognise cognitive problems caused by brain injury. This is the first study of self-awareness in MS that includes assessment of online awareness, as well as metacognitive awareness........... Read More - http://www.ms-uk.org/cognition

I'm not sure I want to be any more self-aware. I already spend a great deal of time assessing how I feel and how my symptoms are at any given moment. Seems to me I could stand to be a little less aware of myself.

This was the best study to spend time and money on? A major discovery here was going to improve the lives of people with MS? Give me a break!!!
