Truly a fascinating study. Jonides was also involved with the dual n-back working memory training that showed transfer to fluid intelligence back in 2008.<br /><br />As you point out, researchers such as Dr. Jonides are developing a sophisticated understanding of brain function and brain training. Good to see.<br /><br />MartinBrain Training Advocatehttp://mindsparke.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21605329.post-41578073393652737812010-05-02T09:09:10.360-07:002010-05-02T09:09:10.360-07:00The Nature/BBC article is very relevant for the sp...The Nature/BBC article is very relevant for the specific tasks and training regime they used. There are issues about subject selection etc, but with such a large sample, I would be surprised if these issues were critical. Many companies sell snake oil, let's face it. What's new? However, obviously, the study does not generalize to ALL training types in ALL domains. There is no contradiction, unless someone uses exactly the same tasks and training regime they used and found an effect.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
