Working-memory training in younger and older adults: training gains, transfer, and maintenance
Working memory (WM), a key determinant of many higher-order cognitive functions, declines in old age. Current research attempts to develop process-specific WM training procedures, which may lead to general cognitive improvement. Adaptivity of the training as well as the comparison of training gains to performance changes of an active control group are key factors in evaluating the effectiveness...

متن کاملCombined Cognitive Training vs. Memory Strategy Training in Healthy Older Adults
UNLABELLED As mnemonic utilization deficit in older adults associates with age-related decline in executive function, we hypothesized that memory strategy training combined with executive function training might induce larger training effect in memory and broader training effects in non-memory outcomes than pure memory training. The present study compared the effects of combined cognitive train...
متن کاملWorking memory training improvements and gains in non-trained cognitive tasks in young and older adults.
Previous studies on working memory training have indicated that transfer to non-trained tasks of other cognitive domains may be possible. The aim of this study is to compare working memory training and transfer effects between younger and older adults (n = 60). A novel approach to adaptive n-back training (12 sessions) was implemented by varying the working memory load and the presentation spee...
متن کاملGains in language comprehension relating to working memory training in healthy older adults.
OBJECTIVE A growing number of studies are focusing on cognitive training procedures to delay age-related decline. Given the crucial role of working memory (WM) in everyday life, some studies have recently analyzed gains deriving from WM training and their transfer and maintenance effects in older adults. METHOD The present study investigates the efficacy of a verbal WM training program in 20 ...
