    Brain training is structured and repetitive exercises designed to improve cognitive function


    Now, a research team led by associate professors Rui Nouchi and professors Ryuta Kawashima at the Institute of Development, Aging and Cancer at Tohoku University in Japan A new training method involving neurofeedback has been developed that allows trainees to monitor their own brain activity while performing tasks


    Neurofeedback has been used to enhance healthy brain function for decades


    For this, study participants were divided into three groups


    Brain training trained participants' processing speed, memory span and attention by playing three different games in each category


    "We found that participants who underwent brain training with neurofeedback had considerable improvements in episodic memory, working memory and attention," Nouchi said


    Details of the study were published in the journal Brain Science


    Along with brain training, Nouchi emphasizes, more engagement may be the key to unlocking its benefits
