Does working memory training benefit every child?
Research institution: Northumbria University Researchers: Joni Holmes, Darren Dunning, and Susan Gathercole Training program used in research: Cogmed RM Status: Ongoing Aim Researchers in the United Kingdom have recently shown that regular and sustained adaptive training in tasks that tax working memory enhances cognitive function in children with disorders of memory and attention. The aim […]
Changes in cortical dopamine D1 receptor binding associated with cognitive training
Researchers at the Karolinska Institute, including Fiona McNab, PhD, and Torkel Klingberg, MD, PhD, show for the first time that cognitive exercise produces chemical changes in the brain. The research provides new insights into the brain’s core processes.
Training and transfer effects of executive functions in preschool children
Lisa Thorell, PhD, finds that preschool children with healthy working memory capacity can increase their working memory through training. These improvements were then shown to transfer to strengthen visual and auditory attention, providing evidence that unlike many forms of cognitive training, working memory training benefits other parts of the mind.
Impact of computerized cognitive training on working memory, fluid intelligence, and science achievement
A team of Stanford researchers investigated the impact of working memory training on middle school students with healthy working memory. Findings reveal that the students substantially improved working memory capacities. Science tests immediately after the training show that the improvements had not yet transferred to higher scores, though the researchers indicate that such gains may become visible over time.
Improving fluid intelligence with training on working memory
A recent study performed by researchers at the University of Michigan suggests that there is a strong correlation between the working memory and fluid intelligence. The study showed that intensive working memory training not only lead to improved working memory, but also produced significant improvements in tests designed to measure fluid intelligence.
Adults of all ages see gains after training working memory
Helena Westerberg, PhD, demonstrates for the first time that working memory training is effective for adults of all ages with healthy working memory. Most notably, adults between the ages of 60 – 70 years of age increased their working memory to “regain” the working memory capacity of someone between 20 – 30 years of age.
The brain uses working memory to filter out irrelevant information
Fiona McNab, a researcher at the Karolinska Institute, reveals that the areas in the brain associated with working memory were particularly active before a subject successfully filtered out irrelevant information.
Changes in cortical activity after training of working memory – a single-subject analysis
A recent study by Olesen, Westerberg and Klingberg [Olesen P, Westerberg H, Klingberg T. Increased prefrontal and parietal brain activity after training of working memory. Nat Neurosci 2004;7:75–9] showed that group analysis of brain activity data show increases in prefrontal and parietal cortices after WM training. In the present study we performed single-subject analysis of the changes in brain activity after five weeks of training.
Increased prefrontal and parietal activity after training of working memory
Researchers at the Karolinska Institute use fMRI scans to capture increased brain activity in adults following Cogmed Working Memory Training.
