myth or truth? — Future on vc.ru
Wired looks into whether the brain training apps that are so popular today bring real benefits.
12 170 views
Material of the publication "Ideonomics".
The population is getting older and more worried about cognitive decline, so brain training apps have grown in popularity. Search for "brain training" and you'll find endless apps and websites promising to make you smarter, more observant, and keep you mentally flexible. nine0003
Some also claim that it can prevent memory loss, dementia and even Alzheimer's disease. Daily mental training, they say, causes physical changes in the brain, just as physical changes in the body. All you have to do is devote a few minutes a day to puzzles, memory games, and word quizzes.
And there are many people who are willing to pay for it. In 2018, consumers spent an estimated $1.9 billion on brain training apps like Lumosity, Peak and Elevate—four times the amount compared to $475 million worldwide in 2012. This is from SharpBrains, an independent research firm that monitors the brain health technology market. nine0003
Of course, brain training games didn't originate on smartphones. Nintendo is resurrecting its fourth-best-selling game, Brain Age, for the Switch gaming console and launching it in Japan this December.
Brain Age Slashgear
The idea of increased intelligence is clearly widespread, but is it based on scientific evidence or empty marketing promises?
The company behind Lumosity, which offers more than 50 games designed to "hone the skills you use every day," says it has attracted more than 100 million users worldwide since its launch in 2007. nine0003
According to Apptopia, an analytics company, the number of their users has increased by 3.8 million in the last nine months alone. And some have decided to pay for a premium account in order to receive detailed performance analytics and advice on improving gaming strategies.
These in-app purchases generated a total of $7.4 million for Lumosity in 2018. While download figures and revenue were lower than the previous year, Lumosity and its ilk may have found a smart way to maintain their market value: These apps are not categorized as games on the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store. nine0003
Lumosity
“Mobile games bring in about $20 billion a year. There is some serious competition among them, but fortunately for these guys, they are in the education or health and fitness category, where the competition is also quite big, but still they do not have to go up against a giant company like Zynga, which spends millions on user acquisition. , says Adam Blacker, vice president of analytics at Apptopia.
As a result, brain training apps rank higher in the store and are easier to find. nine0003
Peak notes that all of its games were developed in collaboration with neuroscientists, and Elevate — which, along with Peak and Lumosity, is one of the top 20 highest paying educational apps for iOS and Android — promises to improve everything from math to public speaking skills, which “will increase productivity, give strength and self-confidence.”
Cognifit, another free app, provides specific brain training programs for people who suffer from cognitive impairments such as dementia or "chemical fog" (impaired memory and concentration that patients sometimes experience during and after cancer treatment). nine0003
Lumosity used a similar marketing ploy in the past, but was forced to abandon it when it received a $2 million fine in 2016 from the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) following consumer complaints of deception.
"Lumosity plays on consumers' fears of cognitive decline with age by claiming that their games can prevent memory loss, dementia and even Alzheimer's disease," said FTC Bureau of Consumer Advocacy Director Jessica Rich. nine0003
Michael Scanlon, co-founder of Lumosity, who turned down a PhD in neuroscience from Stanford University to join the company, says his own research team is designing and conducting research to test the effects on consumer memory, attention, and processing speed—but it didn't work in his case.
The FTC rules state that with respect to "performance in school, work, and athletics, in delaying age-related decline in memory or other cognitive functions, and in reducing cognitive impairment," scientific studies require "randomized, adequately controlled, and maximally blinded tests ". nine0003
Lumosity isn't the only app that promises more than it has to offer. In 2014, the Stanford Center for Longevity published an open letter signed by 69 neuroscientists and cognitive psychologists stating that there is no strong scientific evidence that mind games improve cognitive performance in everyday life, although some benefits may exist.
Two years later, a team of psychologists with expertise in interventional research reviewed every scientific study cited by the major brain training companies in support of their products. nine0003
In addition to company websites, reviewers also viewed published articles linked to www.cognitivetrainingdata.org, a site that represents a large group of gaming proponents that refute Stanford's claim.
A review published in Psychological Science in the Public Interest questions not only how the data were presented and interpreted, but also how many of the studies were conceived. The authors criticized small sample sizes, inadequate control groups, and a selective approach to results. nine0003
So if the scientific evidence is so weak, why do people feel the need to train their brains with these apps and games?
Elevate
Debra Abbate, a 66-year-old US woman, uses the Elevate app daily, usually in the morning when she wakes up. “I think after that I become very attentive,” she says, adding that she likes to compare her grades with the results of other people her age. Quizzes and "school tests," she says, have helped her improve her memory and reading speed over the past couple of years. nine0003
People don't necessarily use brain training apps because they think it will reduce their chances of dementia in the future, says Teal Wykes, professor of clinical psychology and rehabilitation at King's College London.
“I think people see that if you practice something, you get better at it. And it's a pleasant experience, just playing the game. You get through it faster, it's fun, and that's what apps are all about,” she says.
At first glance, it may seem that brain training improves cognitive skills, but it is difficult to prove that knowledge from quizzes and games is transferred to everyday life.
A 2014 pilot study found that older drivers who received computerized cognitive training for memory, reasoning, or processing speed were less likely to have car accidents in the next six years.
In another study, a group of people aged 60 to 85 were asked to play a non-standard NeuroRacer video game for a month. Players had to keep the car in the middle of the road while keeping an eye on the green circle on the screen. nine0003
Players improved their attention and multitasking performance after one month—outperforming those in their early 20s who played the game for the first time—and maintained their gaming skills six months after graduation.
"This study was just a small piece of evidence that if you design a 'game' that targets certain cognitive abilities, it helps some people in some cases," says Pete Etchells, a psychologist at Bath Spa University who studies the behavioral effects of video games. nine0003
Such studies, he adds, would need to be done with larger groups of people and include separate tasks that measure the same target cognitive abilities.
“There is no evidence that advances in apps carry over into everyday life,” says Wykes, who, like Etchells, was not involved in the above studies. “Partly because we haven’t really done enough research on what to teach people to translate app advances into people remembering to take their medication or remember their shopping list.” nine0003
One can understand why someone who plays brain training games feels better over time. For example, the video game Nintendo Brain Age assigns points to players based on their gaming performance. They can start with a “brain age” of 60, and after a few weeks of training, it will drop to 40.
“Some people benefit from seeing themselves get better over time. It's like with an activity tracker that shows that your heart rate during exercise is lower than it was before," says Wykes, adding that games also offer a way to connect with other people, regardless of their location. nine0003
She emphasizes, however, that for people who want to improve a particular skill in everyday life, exercise or walking will be more beneficial, as it has been proven to improve brain function.
The evidence for effects is still rather mixed, but that doesn't stop scientists from taking advantage of the growing interest in brain training. Some games are used for research - if the app provider agrees.
"It's pretty tricky because you need the consent of the app company and access to the back end of the app," Wykes says. “For commercial reasons, some companies are somewhat reluctant to participate in such studies.” nine0003
Sea Hero Quest
Other games are specially designed and used for research. In 2016, the University of East Anglia and University College London launched Sea Hero Quest, a mobile game that aims to discover people at risk of Alzheimer's disease.
The players are shown a map of the waterway. As players navigate the 3D landscape of islands and icebergs, the research team translates every 0. 5 seconds of gameplay into scientific data. In the first three years, the authors have collected the equivalent of over 1,700 years of laboratory research from three million players worldwide. nine0003
"All the data about which paths you take and what you do when you go the wrong way is used to create an idea of how people use spatial navigation capabilities," Etchells says.
Problem with spatial imagination is an early and common symptom of Alzheimer's disease. Trying to understand how the ability to orientate in space during life decreases will allow scientists not only to develop new ways to diagnose the disease, but also create a safer environment for people prone to cognitive decline, he said. nine0003
Brain training apps may not improve your mental performance and you'll just get better at playing games, but there's nothing wrong with that.
"Apps are useful, so there's no reason not to make them, but you shouldn't sell too many of them, and app stores need to be better at protecting consumer interests," says Wykes.
Consumers shopping for corn flakes in the supermarket can read the ingredients on the back of the package and make an informed decision, she says. "In app stores, we can't do the same, so maybe we need to get more information before we click on download." nine0003
