Update See new experimental study below!
A great new brain-fitness program has just been released! MindFit software turns your PC into a "fitness room" for you brain. With just 20 minutes of day 3 times a week, you will experience increased mental vitality and enhanced abilities in many areas of thinking.
Mindfit begins by measuring your mental abilities on a wide range of important cognitive skills. Using the results as a baseline, the program creates a personalized training program designed to increase your brain power
The programming behind these personalized training programs was developed by an eminent psychologist and uses an innovative patented technology. Because no two people are alike, each training sessions is uniquely your own.
The results of the training program are increased mental vitality. Your brain gets enhanced in areas of mental ability which include visual search, time estimation, naming, categorization, visual short term memory, auditory short term memory, location memory, spatial orientation, planning, ability to inhibit planned action, speed of reaction and hand-eye coordination and many more.
My own impressions while using this software is that it is a system that "learns" about you through your performance, customizes your training schedule, and responds to your performance both during and at the end of your training.
NEW YORK and YOQNEAM, Israel, March 16- For the first time, a double-blind clinical trial has shown that computer-based training improves the cognitive functions of the 50-plus crowd. Against conventional wisdom, the computer training in MindFit cognitive skill assessment and training software, created by CogniFit, Ltd. was found to improve short-term memory, spatial relations and attention focus--all skills used in driving and other daily activities that maintain our independence as we age.
These research findings show unequivocally that MindFit, which requires no previous computer experience of users, keeps minds sharper than other computer games and software can," said Prof. Shlomo Breznitz, Ph.D., founder and president of CogniFit. "In fact, the same cognitive domains that MindFit keeps sharp are also central in most daily activities-including driving-that enable aging independently.
Breznitz continued, "These findings support CogniFit's belief that if you exercise your brain just as you do your muscles, you can build the speed and accuracy of your mental functions, significantly. 'Working out' with MindFit three times a week from the comfort of your home will yield similar results for your brain as exercising at the gym with that same frequency does for your muscles.
Here are some three demos that feature a few of MindFits training programs>
The "Inside and Outside" Task trains your ability to divide your attention between two or more visual stimuli. In daily life we normally manage several attention channels simultaneously. As we drive, for example, aside from handling the car, we pay attention to the road and traffic conditions, we usually also listen to the radio and talk with our companions (or on the mobile phone). When watching TV, we listen and watch, converse, think and react. The "Inside and Outside" task focuses on improving an individual’s divided attention skills Visit this link for the demo
"The "Two in One" Task trains your ability to perform two tasks simultaneously. In daily life we are often required to carry out more than one assignment at a time. A typist reads and types simultaneously and tries to do both tasks as accurately as possible. A driver needs to look in the mirror while driving backwards. We often answer the phone while we continue doing our ongoing duties. The 'Two In One' task exercises the ability to perform such tasks quickly and accurately. Visit this link for the demo.
The "Picasso" Task trains visual short term memory as well as synthesis ability- the ability to rebuild a pattern from given parts. In daily life, we often have separate elements that we need to combine into a pattern. For example, when we assemble a new device, cook something by following a recipe, or build something from a kit, we need to join different bits of information in a logical way. The “Picasso” task focuses on improving an individual’s ability to synthesize information. Visit this link for the demo
The software is designed by a eminent psychologist to create individualized training programs covering a wide range of the most important cognitive skills. It is easy-to-use, mentally stimulating, and very effective. MindFit could turn out to be the key to your mental vitality-
