Jun 4, 2021 at 7:32 comment added Arnon Weinberg Good answer +1. @VSO Search the forum for answers to your additional questions - for example: Is “brain training” effective? Basically, I wouldn't bother with such training - at most, it will improve your score on the n-back test, but not have any effect on your actual working memory.

Jun 3, 2021 at 19:25 comment added VSO Thanks for the response (these additional questions are definitely only if you are interested) - what do you think about claims that n-back training improves WM long term? Do you think transfer to DIFFERENT WM tasks indicates a general WM improvement, or its still too specific? For example dual n-back training, but only TESTING on sequence memorization? Edit: Wow, can't believe i asked this 3 years ago. I have been doing some WM training since (n-back) and had improvements, but never cross-tested, so it may be very task specific.
