“What is Working Memory and How Does Using Cogmed to Train ADHD Working Memory Help ADHD College Students and Professionals and Healthcare Workers?”
Introduction: Working memory is a crucial cognitive function that allows us to hold and manipulate information over short periods. For individuals with ADHD, working memory can be significantly impaired, affecting their academic, professional, and personal lives. This blog explores what working memory is and how Cogmed can help train and improve it for those with ADHD.
What is Working Memory? Working memory refers to the brain’s ability to store and manage information temporarily. It is essential for problem-solving, following instructions, and learning new information.
Impact of ADHD on Working Memory: ADHD can disrupt working memory, making it challenging for individuals to stay organized, complete tasks, and retain information.
