The evidence-based program proposes exercises to both stimulate preserved functions and develop new abilities compensating for cognitive disabilities.

Aim of the study is to evaluate the efficiency of the remedial program (PROCOG-SEP) designed for MS patients, compared to an interactive discussion program(DISINT) 140 multiple sclerosis patients will be randomly assigned in one the program for 13 sessions over a 6-month period.

Main outcome criteria is evolution of SRT-LIST before and after program.
