Brain Plasticity Through the Life Span: Learning to Learn and Action Video Games
Open accessAbstract
The ability of the human brain to learn is exceptional. Yet, learning is typically quite specific to the exact task used during training, a limiting factor for practical applications such as rehabilitation, workforce training, or education. The possibility of identifying training regimens that have a broad enough impact to transfer to a variety of tasks is thus highly appealing. This work reviews how complex training environments such as action video game play may actually foster brain plasticity and learning. This enhanced learning capacity, termed learning to learn, is considered in light of its computational requirements and putative neural mechanisms.

“A wealth of evidence indicates that performance on almost any cognitive activity, including basic low-level visual discrimination of perceptual features, shows gradual improvement with training (for review see Bavelier et al., 2012).”

In the citing paper
“Interestingly, this form of generalization may call upon the same executive mechanisms of “learning to learn” that we discussed the previous section: to generalize effectively the brain must know how to generalize, i.e., compare the relevant aspects of the different task structures (Bavelier et al., 2012).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
