After training, participants showed improvements in both NeuroNation exercises used in training, as well as in tests that evaluated their working memory.
The study demonstrated that improvements in cognitive performance - when training with NeuroNation - are transferable. This means that NeuroNation members can expect to experience their brain training benefits in other parts of their everyday lives as well.
What is working memory?
Your working memory is responsible for remembering and processing information. This is why it is so important in your everyday life - not only to remember our schedule and commitments, but also to solve complex problems quickly.
A stronger working memory saves you time and heartache. It helps you at school, at work, and on a day-to-day basis.
So more about the study…
The four week study was conducted with almost 30 participants who were divided into two groups; one trained their working memory using personalized NeuroNation brain training exercises. The other group (the active control group) trained with mnemonics exercises. Mnemonics are memory techniques which help people to remember information that would otherwise be difficult to recall.
Before and after the four week training, participants were assessed using standardized neuropsychological tests.
What were the results?
The study showed that the experimental working memory group, those who trained their working memory with NeuroNation, was significantly better at mastering the untrained tests that challenged working memory at the end of the four weeks than the control group who trained with memory techniques.
In essence: memory techniques won't help you get a better working memory, but you will see improvements using NeuroNation brain training.
