Cognitive Assessment and Training Market by Assessment Type (Pen- and Paper-Based, Hosted, Biometrics), Component, Application (Clinical Trial, Screening & Diagnostics, Brain Training, Academic Research), Vertical, and Region - Global Forecast to 2021

Cognitive impairment can occur in early childhood or late adulthood. There are various reasons for it, which can be reversible or irreversible. Early causes may include malnutrition, prenatal drug exposure, genetic syndromes, and chromosome abnormalities. The brain retains its neuroplasticity till late adulthood; therefore, there has been a growing demand for cognitive assessment and training. MarketsandMarkets predicts the global cognitive assessment and training market to grow from USD 1.98 Billion in 2016 to USD 8.06 Billion by 2021, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 32.3%. The year 2015 has been considered as the base year, while the forecast period is 2016–2021.

The objective of the report is to define, describe, and forecast the cognitive assessment and training market on the basis of assessment types, components (solutions and services), applications, verticals, and regions. It also provide detailed information regarding the major factors influencing the growth of the market (drivers, restraints, opportunities, and challenges).

Top-down and bottom-up approaches were used to estimate and validate the size of the global cognitive assessment and training market and to estimate the size of various other dependent submarkets. The key players in the market were identified through secondary research, such as Alzheimer’s Disease Association, American Psychological Society, Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology, International Test Commission, and their market shares in the respective regions were determined through primary and secondary research. This entire procedure includes the study of annual and financial reports of the top market players and extensive interviews for key insights from the industry leaders. All percentage shares, splits, and breakdowns were determined by using secondary sources and verified through primary sources.

MarketsandMarkets forecasts the cognitive assessment and training market size to grow from USD 1.98 Billion in 2016 to USD 8.06 Billion by 2021, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 32.3%. Major factors contributing to the growth of the market include aging global population, increasing awareness for brain fitness, and advancements in technology. These factors are expected to drive the adoption rate of cognitive assessment and training in the coming years.

The cognitive assessment and training market is segmented by assessment type, component, application, vertical, and region. The components segment is further classified into solutions and services. The various solutions are categorized into assessment, data management, project management, data analysis & reporting, and others (rater training, concussion management, and prescreening solution). These solutions are used to monitor changes in the cognitive function, following the treatment with drugs or other types of interventions. The services segment includes training & support and consulting. Training and support services are expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Cognitive assessment and training solution and service providers offer training and coaching services to deliver balanced cognitive rehabilitation solutions. The coaching and training segment comprises spreading awareness as well as educating the community and professionals about challenges related to brain and mental health.

The applications segment includes clinical trials, classroom learning, brain training, corporate learning, and research (including patient recruitment and patient engagement). The clinical trials application is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Cognitive assessment solutions are extensively used to improve clinical Research and Development (R&D). Inclusion of computerized cognitive tests in the early phase of clinical trials help in the identification of cognitive changes. Clinical trials are mainly used to identify, measure, or monitor cognitive impairments and cognitive changes; such assessments are performed across multiple languages and cultural groups in different clinical and social settings.

The global cognitive assessment and training market has been segmented on the basis of regions into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific (APAC), Middle East & Africa (MEA), and Latin America to provide a region-specific analysis in the report. North America is expected to have the largest market share and would dominate the market from 2016 to 2021, due to the growing number of vendors providing cognitive assessment and training. The U.S. holds a majority of the market share in terms of adoption as well as revenue generation in the North American region, due to the increased awareness among population and the growing demand for improving neuroplasticity of brain.

Time constraints in developing clinically validated brain fitness software, negative publicity in the media about brain training efficiency, and stringent government regulations across the globe are restraining the growth of the cognitive assessment and training market.

The major vendors in the cognitive assessment and training market include Cambridge Cognition Ltd. (Cambridge, U.K.), Cogstate Ltd. (New Haven, U.S.), Bracket (Pennsylvania, U.S.), MedAvante, Inc. (New Jersey, U.S.), Quest Diagnostics (New Jersey, U.S.), ProPhase, LLC (New York, U.S.), CogniFit (New York, U.S.), ERT Clinical (Pennsylvania, U.S.), NeuroCog Trials (North Carolina, U.S.), Pearson Education (London, U.K.), CRF Health (London, U.K.), and Brain Resource Company (New South Wales, Australia). The companies adopted various strategies, such as new product launches & enhancements, partnerships & agreements, and mergers & acquisitions to cater to the needs of the market.
