Effect of Neuroscience-Based Cognitive Skill Training on Growth of Cognitive Deficits Associated with Learning Disabilities in Children Grades 2—4
K-12 - Quantitative Research; Abitbol Avtzon and Sarah, Ph.D., Walden University
This experimental study examined the effectiveness of a specific 12-week neuroscience-based, cognitive-skills computer-training program on the cognitive processing of 40 elementary students in grades 2-4 with specific learning disabilities (SLD). The study results indicated the experimental group had significantly increased performance over the control group in every skill area examined - cognitive growth (GIA), executive functions (EF), visual working memory (GV), verbal working memory (WM), processing speed (Gs), short term memory (Gsm), and predicted achievement scores (Brief Reading, Brief Math).
