summaryComputerized cognitive training such as attention training or working memory training improves certain task performance through exercising the certain brain network. In general, the transfer effects only limit to the related cognitive tasks. Is there a new way to change the brain states and practice the more brain networks, thus improve diverse cognitive performance? We propose a novel state training to test the effects on attention, creativity and working memory and demonstrate the underlying mechanism using behavioral, physiological and neuroimaging methods.
