Brain Training Improves Cognitive Resilience: Aids in Rehabilitation and Prevention of Brain Injuries
A literature review published in the journal Military Medicine indicates that brain training can aid not only in cognitive rehabilitation but also in enhancing cognitive resilience and preventing maladaptive behaviors such as substance use and suicide. Based on the Warfighter Brain Fitness Study involving 406 healthy National Guard servicemembers, the research found that combining strategy-based and adaptive cognitive training significantly improves cognitive performance and psychological well-being.
