LearningRx - Brain Training - Study Showed Personal Brain Training Results Surpassed Digital Brain Training

Colorado Springs, Colorado, May 25, 2016 (Newswire.com) - A Randomized Control Trial (RCT) testing LearningRx’s (www.LearningRx.com) ThinkRx personal brain training program has been completed and the results show significant gains in logic & reasoning, as well as improvement in working memory and three of four math attitude measures. The results have been published in LearningRx’s 48-page 2016 edition of “Client Outcomes and Research Results,” which can be downloaded here: http://www.learningrx.com/our-programs/learningrx-results/.

In the study, 225 high school students were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: ThinkRx, digital training or study hall (control) in a school setting for a 15-week training period. Analysis of the results revealed significantly higher scores for the treatment groups compared with controls on working memory and three of four math attitude measures. The pre- and post-testing scores for logic & reasoning were the most significant. While the control group and digital brain training remained virtually unchanged, the group who underwent LearningRx’s one-on-one brain training had significantly higher scores.  The study, “The Efficacy of the LearningRx Cognitive Training Program: Modality and Transfer Effects,” was published in the Volume 84, Issue 3, 2016 Journal of Experimental Education: Learning, Instruction, and Cognition. The three lead researchers were Oliver Hill, Zewelanji Serpell and M. Omar Faison.
