Cognitive training and selective attention in the aging brain: An electrophysiological study

Highlights • The amplitudes of the P3b and N2pc components increased for older adults after behavioral speed of processing (SOP) training. • This may be associated with enhancement of allocation and capacity of selective attention due to cognitive training. • The results can be further useful in det...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • The amplitudes of the P3b and N2pc components increased for older adults after behavioral speed of processing (SOP) training. • This may be associated with enhancement of allocation and capacity of selective attention due to cognitive training. • The results can be further useful in determining the underlying mechanisms of cognitive training gains and transfer.
