Cognition

What is a Cognitive Disorder?

A cognitive disorder causes an individual to have difficulty thinking. Cognition is multifaceted and includes but is not limited to the following: 

• Memory

• Attention

• Problem solving

• Visuospatial skills

• Information processing

• Executive functions- initiation, planning, organization, self-monitoring, insight and awareness, flexible thinking, time management 

Cognitive skills may be impacted due to an acquired neurological injury, a neuro-progressive disease, or a normal process of aging.

A decline in cognitive functions may impact routine daily activities such as paying bills, managing medications, driving, and household management tasks. It may also disrupt an individual's ability to adequately perform educational or vocational duties.
