Hey there, fellow user of the mind! Are you ready for an exciting journey into the world of N-Back brain exercises? Get ready to color your collection of working memory cognitive activities as we proudly present… our most colorful N-Back worksheets!

The Power of N-Back

Do you know that N-back is often used to measure and improve working memory? In fact, it is widely used in cognitive psychology and neuroscience. If that isn’t cool enough, check out below how it helps an individual’s working memory.

  1. Memory Maintenance: During the N-Back task, participants are presented with a sequence of stimuli, typically letters, numbers, or visual patterns. They are required to remember and recall items presented in the sequence after a specified number of steps back in the sequence. For example, in a 2-Back task, the user would need to recall the item presented two steps back in the sequence.
  2. Attention and Concentration: The N-Back task involves sustained attention and concentration. Participants must continuously monitor the presented items and compare them to their memory of items presented earlier in the sequence.
  3. Cognitive Flexibility: N-Back exercises may also enhance cognitive flexibility. Participants are required to update their working memory continuously and shift their attention to the current stimulus and those presented earlier in the sequence.

It’s essential to remember that the effectiveness of working memory training on real-world cognitive tasks is a topic of ongoing research. Results can vary from person to person. We recommended N-back worksheets and digital tasks as part of a broader cognitive training regimen. Additionally, we believe that all can use these worksheets! Young or Old, all users can learn the skills required to be successful at n-back.

Include inside: 3 activities and bridging questions.

This packet will help you learn skills to better understand and express your emotions in everyday life.

The digital exercises that inspired this worksheet

Secret Files

This exercise primarily targets concentration, working memory, and executive functioning skills. These cognitive skills are heavily used when we are problem solving. Because your client must use some degree of trial and error, they must remember which attempts were successful as well as which ones were not. They must then devise strategies that help them remember the category of each drawer and what words correspond to each category. We use these skills when we have to organize items in our home in a way that makes them accessible to us and presentable.
