Introduction

A commentary on Effects of Video Game Training on Measures of Selective Attention and Working Memory in Older Adults: Results from a Randomized Controlled Trial by Ballesteros, S., Mayas, J., Prieto, A., Ruiz-Marquez, E., Toril, P., and Reales J. The article by Ballesteros and colleagues provides a fresh approach to the cognitive neuroscience of aging with a central focus on enhancement of cognitive functions by a video game training in normal healthy elderly. In the Twenty-first century the interest of researchers on beneficial effects of various cognitive therapies in amelioration of the mental power in elderly has grown rapidly with the increasing population of older people and it is the topic of many scientific papers, meta-analyses and review articles.
