Fig. 5

Plot representing comparison of self-guided digital interventions versus controls (divided by therapeutic framework and active versus non-active controls) for outcome performance in activities of daily living at the end of the intervention. Data was pooled from twenty-one comparisons (n = 1344). The effect of all self-help interventions was not significant (p = 0.09). From all therapeutic approaches, only virtual reality provided a marginal significant effect in improving performance of activities of daily living relative to controls (k = 5, g = −0.29, 95% CI −0.57 to −0.02; Z = 2.09, p = 0.04). Effects of self-guided cognitive training, cognitive rehabilitation and internet-delivered cognitive behavioural were not significant. For simplification only cognitive training, cognitive rehabilitation and virtual reality interventions are displayed.
