以注意力和速度为目标的脑培训游戏可能会将65岁以上成年人的痴呆症风险减少25%。 A brain training game targeting attention and speed may cut dementia risk by 25% in adults over 65.

一项新的研究发现,在65岁以上的成年人中,一个专门的计算机化脑训练游戏可以将老年痴呆症和其他痴呆症的风险降低25%左右。 A new study finds that a specific computerized brain training game may reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and other dementias by about 25% in adults over 65. 与传统的记忆或解决问题任务不同,最有效的培训侧重于注意力和处理速度。 Unlike traditional memory or problem-solving tasks, the most effective training focused on attention and processing speed. 与会者在一个场景中发现一辆像汽车或拖拉机的车辆,同时迅速在分散注意力的地方找到66号公路上的标志。 Participants identified a vehicle—like a car or tractor—in a scene while quickly locating a Route 66 sign amid distractions. 随着性能的改善,图像变化的速度加快,对快速视觉处理提出了挑战。 As performance improved, the speed of image changes increased, challenging rapid visual processing. 结果表明,始终如一地使用这种游戏可能有助于推迟或防止痴呆,为保持老年人的大脑健康提供了有希望的非药物方法。 The results suggest consistent use of this type of game may help delay or prevent dementia, offering a promising non-drug approach to maintaining brain health in older adults.
