Training as a Means for Improving Driving and Cognitive and Performance Among Seniors

The aim of this study was to validate the effect of cognitive training with CogniFit Senior Driver™ on both cognitive abilities and driving performance (as was measured by a simulator) of elderly drivers. Results show that whereas the control group did not show any significant improvements, the CogniFit Senior Driver™ training group showed improved cognitive ability in different domains and improved overall safety while driving.

This study provides proof that better cognition among elderly drivers means safer driving.

CogniFit Senior Driver™ Shows Significant Differences Between Cognitive Abilities of Healthy and Physically Impaired Seniors

The aim of this study was to discover whether cognitive differences exist between healthy and physically impaired elderly drivers. This is part of the effort to help elderly drivers drive safely for a longer period of time, enhancing their integration in society. CogniFit Senior Driver™ was able to differentiate between healthy and physically impaired drivers on a variety of cognitive abilities.

The findings can lay the foundation for future cognitive training programs for physically impaired drivers that will allow them to drive safely and for a longer period of time.
