Abstract

The attempts to restore impaired  human thinking  have been recorded through out the history; from the  natural techniques to the  advance cognitive neuropsychology approach. Nowadays, cognitive rehabilitation  efforts  have  been  developed  to  optimalize  brain  functions  after  brain  trauma. However ,  there  are still  many key issues  that  should be addressed in  understanding the  effectivity of cognitive  rehabilitation,  such  as  whether  the  complex  cognitive  process  can  be  improved  by  training and whether  these  methods  used have a meaningful impact  on individual  functioning.  Moreover, confounding results of several cognitive rehabilitation studies are also found. Thus this paper would confer  some  issues  about  the  effectivity  of  cognitive  rehabilitation  by  discussion  gained  from  a  review of  evidence‐based  research.
