This study will examine the potential effects of computerized cognitive training on large-scale brain networks in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Participants will be randomly assigned to receive six months of either computerized cognitive training or computerized crossword puzzles using a similar system, both to be done at home. Researchers will measure changes in executive function and memory at the start and end of the study using brain scans and neuropsychological tests to evaluate any differences in participants' large-scale structural and functional brain networks compared with the typical course of amnestic (memory-related) MCI.
