LearningRx reviews oppositional behavior & academics study

Aug 23, 2016 by

A survey of parents of 226 school-age children who had been previously identified as having oppositional behavior and academic difficulties, found that many reported significant improvements in behavior and academics following LearningRx (www.LearningRx.com) personal brain training. The results have been published in LearningRx’s 48-page 2016 edition of “Client Outcomes and Research Results,” which can be downloaded here:http://www.learningrx.com/our-programs/learningrx-results/.

 

The study consisted of three groups: 77 students who completed 60 hours of ThinkRx cognitive training; 69 students who completed 120 hours of ReadRx cognitive training, and a control group of 80 students who didn’t undergo any training. The results showed:

  • Both treatment groups saw a reduction in academic difficulty
  • The control group saw an increase in academic difficulty
  • Both treatment groups improved on ratings of oppositional behavior
  • The control group’s ratings of oppositional behavior worsened
