Read our new article entitled Distractor filtering and task load in working memory training in healthy older adults published in Nature - Scientific Reports!
In this online study on 136 older people, we investigated whether different combinations of working memory (WM) and distractor loads in the SmartBrain training influence WM capacity after 3 weeks of training. While the groups did not differ in WM capacity post training, including distractors in WM training tasks, regardless of their loads, improved WM capacity in the absence of distraction and thus shows the possibility to overcome WM difficulties in healthy older adults.
