The resulting program, today named the Cogmed Working Memory Training, is based on the concept of neuroplasticity or the idea that it is possible to produce physical changes in the brain due to behavioural or environmental influence. Following early testing based on Klingberg's research, Cogmed was founded in 2001 at the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm.〔 Reported initial results were promising, particularly Klingberg's finding that after five weeks of training, 12 of the 20 unmedicated ADHD children tested no longer met the clinical criteria for ADHD. The sale and use of Cogmed training throughout Europe and the United States continued. This growth included expansion into treatment for other impairments of working memory, such as persons with learning disabilities, and victims of stroke or other traumatic brain injury. In 2010, Cogmed was purchased by Pearson Education and became a part of the Pearson Clinical Assessment Group. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cogmed」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
