Children who have had a brain tumor may develop problems with thinking, behaving and the way they are feeling due to the disease and/or treatment. For example, problems with concentration or feelings of sadness or anxiety. These are also known as neuropsychological problems.

In the ERNIE study we want to see how we can reduce the influence of these problems on daily life, for example at school, at home or with friends. The goal of this study is to find out what is more helpful in dealing with the neuropsychological consequences of a brain tumor: an approach that is the same for everyone (standardized), or an approach that is tailored to the child's complaints and goals (personalized). We also want to know about the experiences of children and their parents and the areas of improvement in carrying out this intervention.
