In exploring intervention effectiveness, however, researchers have often overlooked a potentially important factor: willingness to engage. Recent findings from Harrell, Kmetz, Boot (2019) showed that perceived cognitive deficits and perceived training efficacy were significant predictors of willingness to engage in a brain training intervention designed to preserve cognition. However, they did not explore another potentially important factor: anticipated intervention enjoyment. In the current study, younger, middle-aged, and older adults (<i>N</i> = 169) completed surveys that assessed their willingness to engage in different types of training (aerobic exercise, brain, meditation) to improve cognition and the extent that factors such as health, perceived cognitive deficits, belief in training efficacy, and personality contributed to willingness to engage. Participants reported being least willing to engage in meditation training and meditation training was rated by participants as the least likely to improve cognition. Anticipated training enjoyment was the overriding factor that predicted willingness. These findings provide additional insights into why, and for how long, individuals may be willing to engage in training to prolong independence and have implications for understanding intervention adoption and adherence.</p>","PeriodicalId":73678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of cognitive enhancement : towards the integration of theory and practice","volume":"5 2","pages":"259-265"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s41465-020-00197-x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39387154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ten cognitively healthy older Latinos participated in the four-month BAILAMOS™ dance program. We assessed PA levels (self-reported and device-assessed) and estimated cardiorespiratory fitness, cognition, and resting-state FC via functional magnetic resonance imaging at baseline and post-intervention. We performed paired t-tests and Pearson correlations. Given the pilot nature of the study, significance levels were set at <i>p</i> < 0.05 and effect sizes are reported.

Here, a novel perceptual learning game was tested for its effectiveness in reducing difficulties with hearing speech in competition. The game was designed to train a mixture of auditory processing skills thought to underlie speech in competition, such as spectral-temporal processing, sound localization, and auditory working memory. Training on these skills occurred both in quiet and in competition with noise. Thirty college-aged participants without any known hearing difficulties were assigned either to this mixed-training condition or an active control consisting of frequency discrimination training within the same gamified setting. To assess training effectiveness, tests of speech in competition (primary outcome), as well as basic supra-threshold auditory processing and cognitive processing abilities (secondary outcomes) were administered before and after training. Results suggest modest improvements on speech in competition tests in the mixed-training compared to the frequency-discrimination control condition (Cohen’s d  = 0.68). While the sample is small, and in normally hearing individuals, these data suggest promise of future study in populations with hearing difficulties.","PeriodicalId":73678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of cognitive enhancement : towards the integration of theory and practice","volume":"6 1","pages":"47 - 66"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46130093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
