Objectives

Improve your reaction time, visuospatial perception and cognitive reflexes - all indicators of a healthy brain. By playing our games and exercises, and tracking yourself over time with one of our series of objective measures (global cognitive map, reaction time test, complex reaction time test, perception test) you can learn to enhance your reaction time while having fun. You may also begin to stimulate the process of neurogenesis.    Several studies link faster reaction times to high IQ and also longevity. You can also learn to be a superior competitive gamer.

IQ  (Intelligence Quotient)

An intelligence quotient or IQ is a score derived from a set of standardized tests developed to measure a person's cognitive abilities ("intelligence") in relation to their age group. IQ tests do not measure intelligence the way a ruler measures height (absolutely), but rather the way a race measures speed (relatively). Also, IQ tests measure actual performance, not innate potential. For people living in the prevailing conditions of the developed world, IQ is highly heritable, and by adulthood the influence of family environment on IQ is undetectable. IQ test scores are correlated with measures of brain structure and function, as well as performance on simple tasks that anyone can complete within a few seconds. IQ is strongly correlated with academic success, but can also predict important life outcomes such as job performance, socioeconomic advancement, and "social pathologies". Recent work has demonstrated links between IQ and health, longevity, and functional literacy. (Wikipedia)
