Abstract
A method of training verbal and/or visual information allows a user to train their cognitive processing of verbal or visual information. A plurality of visual stimuli is sequentially displayed on a display device, and the user is tasked with identifying whether a stimuli currently displayed was displayed a specified number of elements in the sequence prior to the current element. Each of the visual stimuli is associated with one of a plurality of categories, and the category or categories to be trained may vary. A stimuli recall event may be triggered which challenges the user to recall their previous correct answers.
Claims19
A method of training verbal and/or visual information processing by executing computer-executable instructions stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprises the steps of:
- (A) providing a plurality of visual stimuli, wherein each of the plurality of visual stimuli is associated with one of a plurality of categories;
- wherein the plurality of categories comprises categories of words and images;
- (B) selecting at least one desired category from the plurality of categories;
- (C) defining a target interval N;
- (D) displaying a plurality of desired stimuli from the at least one desired category as elements in a sequential order, wherein only one of the plurality of visual stimuli is shown on a display device at any time;
- (E) receiving a target identification signal through an input device,
- wherein the target identification signal is associated with a current stimulus from the plurality of desired stimuli;
- wherein the current stimulus is displayed on the display device while the target identification signal is received;
- and
- (F) verifying the current stimulus as being identical to a previously displayed stimulus by comparing the current stimulus to the previously displayed stimulus, wherein the current stimulus is displayed N elements after the previously displayed stimulus in the sequential order.
