| Intervention | Subjects were randomly assigned to one of the following groups: 1. Received 5 sessions over a 4 week period of supervised practice of an Attentional Control Training tape and were asked to practice daily in the intervening period (n = 37) 2. Received an identical amount of therapist contact and also received tape-based training but based upon physical fitness training (n = 35) 3. Received no therapist contact but were assessed at the same intervals as the other 2 groups (n = 38) The intervention was delivered in the participants own home. All patients were assessed at pre-treatment, post-training and 12 months follow-up by an assessor blind to the treatment group. |
