Homework Frustration? LearningRx Can Help!

LearningRx is dedicated to changing lives and unlocking potential by strengthening cognitive skills and removing learning obstacles! Now, there is new research coming out that shows exactly how that change happens. The study was conducted by educational psychologist Edward Jedlicka, PhD. “This study on LearningRx cognitive training quantifies the transfer of training to real life benefits,” explains Dr. Jedlicka. “We’ve long known that LearningRx one-on-one cognitive training programs improve cognitive skills. We also have evidence that this training also reduces academic difficulty for struggling students.” Some students worry that even though they are progressing through the program the results won’t transfer to life and academic skills.

As demonstrated by this controlled study, published in Frontiers in Education, both intervention groups achieved statistically significant changes on objective cognitive test measures. “It’s exciting that we are continuing to see these kinds of transfer effects in our ongoing research on LearningRx brain training”, says educational psychologist and director of research Amy Lawson Moore, PhD. “Dr. Jedlicka’s study adds to the growing convergence of evidence on the benefits of LearningRx clinician-delivered cognitive training which continues to distinguish the programs from the ‘brain games’ industry.” Why does LearningRx training reduce academic difficulty and oppositional behavior? Our training strengthens the cognitive weaknesses which makes academics and homework difficult. When students have the ability to complete a task, it results in less procrastination and greater motivation. If the start of your school year has been marked by homework battles and frustration, LearningRx training provides hope!
