Özet: The authors evaluated the efficacy of a new computerized cognitive training program (BrainWare® Safari) on the working memory (WM) performance of students with reading problems. Fifteen students aged 7-12 with reading problems participated in the experimental group for five 50-minutes sessions per week (30 total sessions), whereas a 20 matched control group received no intervention. The experimental group training included Visual Spatial Working Memory, Visual Sustained Attention, Visual Selective Attention, Visual Figure Ground, Visual Processing Speed and Visual Motor Integration. A neuropsychological test battery on working memory functioning for children (WMTB-C), Computerized Raven’s Colored Progressive Matries for children and a reading performance test (NAMA Scale) were administered both before and after the intervention.Statistically significant training effects were found on the forward visual spatial WM, the backward visual spatial WM and the mazes memory.Finally, it’s concluded that a 30-session systematic cognitive training developed by BrainWare Safari can significantly improve WM and its components in students with reading problems.
