CogMed
Deficits in working memory can affect an individual's ability to focus attention, control impulses and solve problems. Impairments of working memory are found in a wide range of individuals who experience attention deficits, such as children and adults with ADD or ADHD, persons with learning disabilities and victims of stroke or traumatic brain injury.
Cogmed is based on a breakthrough discovery that individuals can train and improve their working memory. Cogmed's working Memory Training Program helps:
- Improve focus
- Impulse control
- Complex problem solving
Through a combination of software-based memory exercises and personal coaching, participants engage in a challenging five-week program using an Internet-connected computer. Cogmed's program has been validated by high-impact research in controlled scientific studies.
