CogniFit: Leaders in online training and games for reasoning

CogniFit's reasoning training has been designed to help strengthen, rehabilitate or improve the executive functions of children, adolescents, adults and seniors . Executive functions are a series of processes that allow us to perform activities of high complexity, such as planning our working day, adapting to changes, reasoning or processing more elaborate information. It is important that our reasoning and executive functions are in an appropriate state, as they are essential for high performance in the workplace, academic or even for dealing with unforeseen events in your personal and family life.

The executive function training program from CogniFit is composed of a series of online cognitive stimulation games . These activities to train reasoning can be performed from a computer, tablets or smartphones with an internet connection . The games included in this training for reasoning have been designed by a team of neuroscientists, and have been adapted to be as accessible as possible.

Who is it for?

CogniFit executive function training is designed to stimulate the cognitive abilities of children, adolescents, adults and seniors with or without the disorder. Executive functions are abilities as complex as they are useful, as they allow us to make mental calculations, organize ourselves and regulate our own behavior. Given the importance of these, it can be very beneficial if people with very different circumstances decide to stimulate them with CogniFit.

Jogos de treino de habilidades cognitivas para estimular o raciocínio com a CogniFit

Executive functions are considered to be highly complex abilities. They enable us to manage our daily needs and react appropriately to unforeseen events that may arise. CogniFit's training for reasoning is responsible for:

What will I get from CogniFit brain training for executive functions?

A correct training program for reasoning can help improve this complex set of cognitive abilities. Some of the main reasons for using CogniFit to train executive functions are:

• Reduzir os sintomas relacionados ao raciocínio: alguns transtornos e doenças apresentam-se como alterações nas funções executivas. O treino correcto pode ajudar a reduzir os sintomas relacionados a esses distúrbios.
• Retardar o declínio cognitivo em doenças neurodegenerativas: é comum que doenças neurodegenerativas afectem rapidamente as funções executivas. Fortalecer o status dessas habilidades pode ajudar a retardar ou reduzir a extensão do declínio cognitivo causado por doenças. Em última análise, isso promove a autonomia do paciente e, portanto, a sua qualidade de vida.
• Prevenção de problemas cognitivos relacionados à idade: A velhice não precisa ser acompanhada de declínio cognitivo, embora pessoas idosas saudáveis ​​frequentemente tenham um declínio nas suas funções executivas e noutras habilidades cognitivas. A realização de exercícios de funções executivas para pessoas mais velhas pode ajudar a evitá-lo.
• Optimize o status das funções executivas: mesmo jovens saudáveis ​​podem ter que enfrentar desafios cognitivos muito complexos durante tempos de estudo ou em empregos muito exigentes. Com o treino das funções executivas é possível melhorar o seu estado e ser mais eficiente nessas actividades.

How does it strengthen cognitive function?

CogniFit's executive function training will test your cognitive abilities through simple online activities. In order to successfully complete these tasks, your executive functions will be put to the test .

As a consequence of the training program for reasoning, the areas of our brain involved in this area will be stimulated. This stimulation helps our brain to slightly change and adapt. This is known as "neuroplasticity ". The fact that our brain can be adapted allows us to be more efficient in activities that require executive functions, be it in CogniFit training, at work, in class, or in our daily lives.

It is important to bear in mind that to stimulate the brain effectively, it is not enough to play any game . Good cognitive training must have certain characteristics, such as those offered by CogniFit training: a solid scientific basis, the ability to adapt to the needs and level of the user, and the right activities to train executive functions.

Tele-estimulação

The majority of CogniFit training programs are available on different devices: computer, tablet, and smartphone. This allows training to be done anywhere, so we can continue our cognitive stimulation plan outside therapy or from home.

What happens if you don't train your cognitive skills?

People who do not adequately stimulate their executive functions may find it difficult to organize themselves, to work quickly, to detect and correct their own mistakes, etc. This can translate into constant problems in self-reliance or in collaborating with others .

When we do not stimulate executive functions, the related areas of our brain reduce their activity. When our organism becomes aware of the lack of activity, it decides to dedicate a smaller amount of resources to these areas, since other parts of the brain could make better use of them. Thus, the cognitive areas involved in executive functions become less efficient , which makes it more difficult for us to use these cognitive abilities in our daily lives. Therefore, if we want to have our executive functions in good condition, it is recommended that we provide our brain with adequate stimulation.

How much time should I spend with CogniFit?

CogniFit executive function training is divided into 15-20 minute interactive sessions . To obtain visible results, it is recommended to carry out a minimum of 3 training sessions per week, preferably on non-consecutive days.

Each training session consists of two activities that train reasoning and an evaluation task. This design allows CogniFit to display a precise evolution curve while adapting the type of task and its difficulty to the user's current needs. This allows the user to check their progress from the beginning of our training until today, or even compare it with the scores of other users.

CogniFit is unique

A CogniFit é a principal ferramenta de actividades e jogos para o treino de raciocínio. O programa de treino do raciocínio propõe uma série de exercícios padronizados e multidimensionais que ajudam a optimizar a eficiência das funções executivas, para transformá-las em habilidade.

CogniFit's executive function training is able to adapt the type of activities it offers and their difficulty thanks to the patented ITS™ (Individualized Training System) technology. The ITS™ is unique and adjusted to the cognitive needs of each user. This personalization system has been designed by an international team of scientists specialized in neuroscience.

CogniFit's reasoning training is unique. The software itself is responsible of measuring users' performance constantly and automatically selecting the activities to be performed . Controlling the difficulty to adjust it to the level of the user helps challenge executive functions.

In addition, CogniFit makes it easy to see the user improvement by storing all the variables collected during training and then displaying the evolution curve.
