As a member of the Interactive Metronome Scientific Advisory Board I am often asked to review published research studies that have investigated the IM method. Recently, a investigation of the effectiveness IM (which is a mental timing -based intervnetion) with children with attention deficit disorder and developmental coordination disorders was published in the International Journal of Rehabilitation Research . The citation and abstract for the article are reproduced below.

I have pointed out in an earlier post how training young children to increase their working memory capacity will increase their IQ. This same phenomenon has now been demonstrated in young adults (mean age = 25.6 years)

My book on memory improvement presents much anecdotal evidence that people with outstanding memories use mental images of what they are trying to remember. Now, a formal scientific study validates the conclusion that ordinary humans have astounding memory capacity for visual (but not auditory) memories. In this study, young adults (20-35 yrs) were shown a succession of object images, one every three seconds
