Brain Training - working?

Today you get flooded with games IQ and training of the brain and sites. This training is a profitable business, like all young and old, male or female, white or blacks are smart or. Brain is, of course, that you test and above all fun! But is that really so? The fun part of the course is purely a personal opinion, but not the brain-training you really smarter?

At first, we must consider that your IQ is usuallyAccepted as a measure of your intelligence, what you're intelligent, "so to speak. If you do different IQ test your IQ would be more or less the same. At least this is as it should, however, increase or decrease in IQ as high as 20 points during a working life is not at all unusual to take into account even without the age-related diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. So this means you can more or less intelligent in some moments of your life.

A lot of research on this topic isfact and one of the most interesting experiments was carried out for the first time in 1950 by Canadian psychologist Donald Hebb Professor and was repeated in 2008 by Professor Ian Robbins. In this experiment, several volunteers were left alone in the dark in solitary confinement for 48 hours. This already has enough brain to reduce some volunteers IQ test results of more than 20 points, those that adapt to the situation. In a nutshell: "I do not use so much worse," he begins his brain. Of course, this is an extreme example, because the subjects were completely devoid of sensory stimulation, but the fact that the subjects of their "intelligence" after a while it is true the world very interesting. This shows that stimulating the brain of subjects were actually more intelligent again.

That makes you ask: "What if you have a job that is boring stimulate your brain is not Want Yourto adjust> brains to this situation? Want to get really stupid because you are not your brain for 8 hours or more a day? Research, of these effects is much more complicated because of large must be reliable, made to obtain. However, consider that the results of experiments on sensory deprivation, the form would come in the results of the experiment the logical conclusion that on the train you to your brain, keep it in order. This is what yourentire body's muscles, organs, so your brain to be different because, how?
