Principles of Effective Cognitive Training: Core Hubs Cognitive Training Framework
Core Hubs Cognitive Training Model The Core Hubs model depicts three overlapping ‘core hub’ functional networks – for fluid intelligence, self- regulation and incubation – distributed between the Executive (Cognitive Control) Network and the Default Mode Network as shown in these Venn diagrams. Core hubs training framework is designed for far transfer training […]
The Process Overlap Theory. A Unified Account of G and IQ Augmentation 2. Fluid and Crystallized Intelligence, Cognitive Workload and other Concepts Explained.
In Part1 of my extended account of Process Overlap Theory I explained how general intelligence (g) is a statistical fiction that doesn’t represent any real psychological processes or neural mechanisms in the brain. What is real in the brain when we take an IQ test or apply our intelligence are ‘domain general’ executive processes (with […]

It is a good starting point for understanding the nature of intelligence and the human mind more generally, and is worth reading digested content here […]
