Participants will receive the HOBSCOTCH-MS intervention consisting of 1:1 sessions delivered once per week including:

• 1 pre-HOBSCOTCH Session (on webcam or by phone)
• 1 educational session (on webcam)
• 6 HOBSCOTCH intervention sessions (webcam or phone)
• 1 wrap-up session (webcam or phone)

One on one virtual self-management program for cognitive dysfunction associated with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

HOBSCOTCH is a home-based self-management program to treat cognitive symptoms and improve quality of life, while minimizing the barriers of access to care. The program is based on Problem Solving Therapy (PST) and teaches problem solving strategies and compensatory mechanisms to help manage cognitive dysfunction and enhance quality of life. HOBSCOTCH-MS is an adaptation of the HOBSCOTCH program for people with MS and incorporates education about multiple sclerosis and cognition into the education module.

The Functional Assessment of Multiple Sclerosis (FAMS) is a validated self-report health-related quality-of-life instrument for people with multiple sclerosis. The FAMS consists of 44 scored (5-point Likert scale) items in six quality-of-life domains: Mobility (seven items), Symptoms (seven items), Emotional wellbeing (seven items), General contentment (seven items), Thinking/fatigue (nine items), and Family/social wellbeing (seven items). An Additional concerns subscale consists of 15 other items that fall outside of the six domains but may provide valuable information to the clinician. The FAMS includes items across the International Classification of Functioning components of body functions, activities and participation, and environmental factors. Higher scores indicate better quality of life.

The Cognitive Function sub-scale of the Neuro-QOL is a brief validated tool developed by the NIH for use in patients with neurological disease. Scores range from 8 to 40, with a higher score indicating better reported cognitive functioning.

The Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) is a validated tool that measures cognitive processing speed. It requires a person to substitute a number (1 - 9), either orally or written, for randomized presentations of geometric figures over 90 seconds. Scores range between 0 and 100 with a lower score representing poorer performance.
