Abstract	Clinical Question: Do individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) benefit from memory strategies/supports training versus no training, based on their performance on prospective memory tasks? Method: Systematic Review. Sources: PSYCINFO®, CINAHL®, PubMed®, and ASHA® journal search. Search Terms: MCI, cognitive rehabilitation, cognitive intervention, speech-language pathology, AND cognitive training. Number of Studies Included: 5. Total Number of Participants: N = 171. Primary Results: Typically aging adults and individuals with MCI who received memory strategies/supports training showed improved memory skills for activities of daily living (ADLs), recall, and use of compensatory strategies during post-test and follow-up testing compared to individuals who received no training. Conclusions: A number of studies support the use of memory strategies/supports for individuals with MCI. Several studies have demonstrated that individuals with MCI who receive training on strategies/supports to increase memory ability show significant functional gains on completion of ADLs, memory recall tasks, everyday memory tasks such as learning new names, and knowledge and use of memory strategies at post-testing. In one study, individuals perceived significant gains in their own memory performance following memory strategy training. Some studies revealed that functional gains were maintained at follow-up testing. Clinicians who treat individuals with MCI should consider a systematic approach to teaching and implementing memory strategies/supports with their clients. (As Provided).
