Abstract
Aim: the aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Powell's cognitive rehabilitation in improving executive functions, memory, and attention to veterans with PTSD. Methods: This study was carried out on 24 veterans with PTSD in two experimental and control groups. For conducting the study, PSSI test, Wisconsin Card Test, Stroop test, and working memory test were used. Statistical analysis was performed by analysis of covariance. Results: The results of analysis of covariance showed that Powell's cognitive rehabilitation(PCR) method is effective in improving preservative error, number of floors completed, and sequence, forward and reverse vastness of space, time interference error, and error interference of mistakes. Conclusion: PCR is effective in improving executive function, memory and attention to veterans with PTSD.
