Cognition refers to information-processing functions, including attention, memory, and executive functions (i.e., planning, problem-solving, self-monitoring, and self-awareness). Impairments in functional cognition are common and can result from multiple causes, including Human genetics and/or development, Neurologic disease, injuries, and disorders.
Occupational therapy practitioners focus their interventions on the relationship between the client’s cognitive skills, functional performance, and environmental context to enhance the daily life experience of individuals with cognitive impairment.
