Dr. Markus has used paper and pencil Strong Mind Mazes clinically since 2003 with children, adolescents, adults, traumatic brain injured patients, corporate executives and NASA scientists and engineers.
This is a game designed to enhance concentration, memory and problem solving.
Effective problem-solving and decision-making is based, at least in part, on the number of variables a problem solver or decision maker is capable of evaluating.
With deliberate rehearsal, individuals can learn to increase the number of variables that they use to make a decision. This skill reduces impulsivity and encourages the mental manipulation of ideas. Individuals develop a filter to think before they act or make a decision.
With over 1,000,000 maze variations, Strong Mind Mazes provides ample rehearsal to strengthen memory, concentration and problem solving. There are 5 Levels: Beginner, Intermediate, Accelerated, Advanced, and Expert. Within each Level there are 25 Mazes of increased difficulty. A wide palette of colors, patterns, and graphics promote play and learning.
