So its no wonder that brain-training programmeswhich typically focus on training our working memoryare a multibillion-dollar ind

20、ustry. But can this kind of training really make us smarter?Cognitive training sees the brain as a kind of muscle that can be made stronger with the right kind of practice. It consists of tasks or games carried out on computers or smart phones. Despite much research, there has so far been no agreeme

21、nt about its effectiveness. Some think that cognitive training increases a broad range of cognitive abilities, while others less optimistic.Yet we do know that some cognitive skills, such as working memory and intelligence, tend to go together and are predictors of real-life skills such as work perf

22、ormance. Thus, training one cognitive skill might lead to an improvement in many other cognitive and non-cognitive skills. That is exactly the underlying hypothesis(假設(shè))on which working-memory training is based.To test this hypothesis, we examined all the studies about working-memory training we coul

23、d find with normally developing children: 26 experiments and 1,601 total participants. Children represent an ideal test group: during childhood, skills are still at the beginning of their development. Thus, cognitive training is more likely to succeed with children than adults.The results were very

24、clear. Working-memory training did not show any effect on childrens fluid intelligence, a persons ability to solve new problems and adapt to new situations. It didnt influence their academic achievement or other cognitive abilities, either. The only reliable effect was that children got better at wh

25、at they trained to do. No more, no less. So performing working-memory tasks does seem to make you better at doing them. Nonetheless, the fact that participants got better at such tasks does not necessarily mean that their working-memory ability increased. They may just have learnt how to perform tha

26、t particular type of task.The results do indicate that the use of working-memory training programs as an educational tool is fruitless. More generally, together with other research, the results contribute to disproving cognitive training companies promises of a better brain.The results have even mor

Beyond working-memory training, other recent studies have shown the improving cognitive skills outside music-including academic skills.Howev

28、er, these negative results must not discourage us from training our cognitive and non-cognitive skills. We just have to be aware of the actual limitations of such practice in areas outside what we are actually training. But that doesnt mean we shouldnt do it-the most efficient way to develop a skill
