Training the emotional brain: improving affective control through emotional working memory training.
Affective cognitive control capacity (e.g., the ability to regulate emotions or manipulate emotional material in the service of task goals) is associated with professional and interpersonal success. Impoverished affective control, by contrast, characterizes many neuropsychiatric disorders. Insights from neuroscience indicate that affective cognitive control relies on the same frontoparietal neu...
متن کاملExtending Brain-Training to the Affective Domain: Increasing Cognitive and Affective Executive Control through Emotional Working Memory Training
So-called 'brain-training' programs are a huge commercial success. However, empirical evidence regarding their effectiveness and generalizability remains equivocal. This study investigated whether brain-training (working memory [WM] training) improves cognitive functions beyond the training task (transfer effects), especially regarding the control of emotional material since it constitutes much...
متن کاملImproving Deaf Children’s Working Memory through Training
The aim of this study was to design and to assess the effectiveness of a working memory (WM) intervention for deaf children. A review of factors that explain deaf students’ poor results in WM tasks was used to identify deaf participants' strengths and difficulties in WM tasks. This review formed the basis for the design of the WM training program assessed in the study. Participants were 77 chil...
متن کاملWorking memory training improves emotional states of healthy individuals
Working memory (WM) capacity is associated with various emotional aspects, including states of depression and stress, reactions to emotional stimuli, and regulatory behaviors. We have previously investigated the effects of WM training (WMT) on cognitive functions and brain structures. However, the effects of WMT on emotional states and related neural mechanisms among healthy young adults remain...
متن کاملWorking memory training: improving intelligence--changing brain activity.
The main objectives of the study were: to investigate whether training on working memory (WM) could improve fluid intelligence, and to investigate the effects WM training had on neuroelectric (electroencephalography - EEG) and hemodynamic (near-infrared spectroscopy - NIRS) patterns of brain activity. In a parallel group experimental design, respondents of the working memory group after 30 h of...
