BrainTrain's Cognitive Training SoftwareHave fun using cognitive brain training software

Have fun using BrainTrain’s cognitive brain training software to improve your attention, self-control, listening skills, reasoning ability, and memory - the basic skills you need for success in school and in life. Research indicates that just as physical exercise improves physical health and prevents illness, brain training exercises can improve the cognitive functioning of people with ADD/ADHD, head injuries, Learning Disabilities (LD), schizophrenia, and other cognitive impairments.

Brain Training Software helps maintain functionality in geriatric population.The Captain's Log cognitive training system, BrainTrain's comprehensive library of computerized cognitive brain training exercises, provides over 2000 hours of systematic computerized brain workouts. The software makes it easy for you to help your clients restore or improve their working memory, attention, self-control, mental processing speed, and more. Based on over 20 years of clinical experience and research, the exercises range from the very simple tasks you need for cognitively impaired head-injured children and adults all the way up to challenging working memory activities for peak achievement training. 

BrainTrain also offers two other computerized cognitive brain training software products - SoundSmart and SmartDriver. These packages are designed to help improve listening skills, following directions, phonemic awareness, working memory, mental processing speed, visual scanning and impulse control.

Neurofeedback SoftwareSmartMind - EEG Neurofeedback

BrainTrain's Neurofeedback Training system, SmartMind, combines the effectiveness of neurofeedback with the flexibility and capability of computerized cognitive training in one easy-to-use, powerful package. SmartMind can also be used as a stand-alone neurofeedback training system. SmartMind is unique in that it incorporates special pattern recognition algorithms (Patent Pending) to filter out facial artifact, allowing you to train directly to the executive processing center of the brain contained in the frontal lobes.

A published research study exploring the efficacy of a brain training protocol that presented neurofeedback simultaneously with the Captain's Log brain training exercises was published in the Journal of Neurotherapy (Tinius & Tinius, 2000). Significant improvements were found in both auditory and visual attention and response accuracy for adults diagnosed with ADHD and mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in only twenty training sessions.

ADD/ADHD Screening and Testing Software

IVA ADHD Testing & IVA ADHD Screening

The BrainTrain Test Battery contains two continuous performance tests (CPTs) that provide in-depth, objective information to help the clinician diagnose and differentiate the four categories of ADD/ADHD. The IVA+Plus Continuous Performance Test and the IVA-AE (Advanced Edition) Continuous Performance Test are unique in that each test assesses both visual and auditory attention and response inhibition in one easy-to-use instrument.

The IVA+Plus, which is approximately 13 minutes long, is normed for ages 6 - 96. In addition to it's proven value as a diagnostic tool worldwide, it provides an excellent ADD/ADHD screening instrument in the school setting.

The IVA-AE is the only continuous performance test produced specifically to help the clinician diagnose ADHD/ADD in adults. Normed for ages 18 - 50, the IVA-AE may be used in a short version as an ADD/ADHD screening tool or in a longer version to challenge the adult whose more subtle attention deficits may not be detected by an easier ADHD test instrument.

Here's what a past participant had to say about these workshop...
"I have completed ‘Mastering SmartMind’ and ‘Mastering the Mental Gym’ with BrainTrain. It is to Dr. Sandford’s credit that I was able to take the information home and begin working with these modalities immediately and without difficulty. His skill at communicating the necessary information and emphasizing hands-on knowledge is ideal for this material. The courses are energized by up-to-date research and innovations in the field as well as Dr. Sandford’s own passion for this work. I want to acknowledge the efficiency and generosity of the entire BrainTrain staff. As I work to become more skilled in the area of neurofeedback and cognitive training, their knowledge and support are crucial."
