Hi All,

And how about lumosity and Peak? Are they worth it?

I doubt the efficacy of things like Lumosity, because the training is not hardcore enough. They have 2 excellent games though: the 1 with the train track and ‘river ranger’. Aside from that, you can barely call those games a warm up. Not worth paying 100+ bucks a year on.

I think it is worth spending money on luminosity if you are playing the games for the sake of enjoyment and/or to gauge your brainpower after playing dual n back. I loved the train track game. It was one of my favorite games ever. I have noticed how much better I perform at the reaction speed test, the no go/go impulse control test, the strip test, and the other tests on cognitivefun.net when I consistently play dual n back. I also play the train track game and other luminosity games better.

Cambridgebrainsciences.com and humanbenchmark.com are free alternatives for a good benchmark.

Try googling the study on spatial skills and the video game portal. There's a research paper that basically debunks lumosity for not showing any changes as compared to- literally- a video game.

Ow yes, Val, you're right. I've done some research myself and a good friend Lavon T. Lawrence has done Extensive research debunking how these lazily participated video games do not train the perfect machine that is our complexly coordinated brain! After all....any video game is not a game neither but it's own activity. There is no mental energy being spent in most of these games. You cannot even concentrate. At most, you tense your body in many and breathe irregularly exhausting yourself prematurely in the day.

I have used my free trial. I scored 54/55 at the initial test, I missclicked in one of the questions. I was slow, I am sure that I would be faster in Spanish, I frequently found myself translating the sentences in order to better understand them. I still scored around 130, I scored around 140 in an official test when I was a kid, but I suspect that I may be a little brighter now. I have scored close to 160 at an unreliable one over the internet.

I think that the challenge must be tougher in order to elicit some increase in reasoning ability. I am now reading books about logic as a substitutive. I have also learned how the program works and I try to come up with my own propositions, which seems to require some similar mental effort if you keep track of all the relationships between objects. I will also aquire books about RFT.

I wish some programmer here does his own version of this training, as we have with N-Back, with more ajustable difficulty settings.

This one is fine, but I miss some variety and increased difficulty. Also, trying to replicate more closely the methods of the original research would be nice.

Hello i created a App like the demo of Rise your iq, you can put any number of sylogism you want. Link: https://textoimagenes.appspot.com/emvm/#silogismos 

Use keyboard keys Z o X to answer.

Thanks!

This is dope, man. Thank you!

I can't help but sense I do these wrong. I get them right, but the way I do it is arrange the words in my head according to their rank/status and then update the list as I read more. Kind of like n-back, but instead of truncating the list, I'm updating it with new information.

Is this a "cheap" way to do it?
