CogMed Working Memory Training
Cogmed Working Memory Training sets the highest standard for evidence-based cognitive training, and is now considered a first-line intervention for attention problems. The American Academy of Pediatrics – representing America’s 60,000 pediatricians – recognizes working memory training as a good evidence-based intervention for ADHD. Cogmed training is a home-based software program to improve concentration by training your working memory. Cogmed training was originally developed in Sweden at the Karolinska Institute, one of Europe’s leading medical institutes. The program is based on strong scientific research demonstrating that after training, people improve their ability to concentrate, control impulsive behavior, and better utilize complex reasoning skills.
