Strong claims have been made about the efficacy of cognitive training. In particular, the idea that working memory (WM) training enhances intelligence initially generated enthusiasm but, on further inspection, is now met with skepticism. In our view, this is an unfortunate setback due to inappropriate task design and does not refute the core idea of cognitive enhancement. Growing evidence suggests that successful training programs integrate complexity, novelty, and diversity to maximize ecological validity.
关于认知训练的功效，人们已经提出了强烈的主张。特别是，工作记忆 (WM) 训练可以提高智力的想法最初引起了人们的热情，但进一步观察后，现在却引起了怀疑。在我们看来，由于任务设计不当，这是一个不幸的挫折，但并没有反驳认知增强的核心思想。越来越多的证据表明，成功的训练计划整合了复杂性、新颖性和多样性，以最大限度地提高生态有效性。
