Computer-implemented method for enhancing cognitive ability of a participant using multiple object tracking. One or more images are provided and are available for visual presentation to the participant. A plurality of images based on the one or more images are visually presented, including multiple target images and multiple distracter images, where each of the target images is graphically indicated for a first time period, and then each of the images is moved for a second time period during which the graphically indicating is not performed. The participant is then required to select the target images from the plurality of images, and a determination is made regarding the selection's correctness/incorrectness. The visually presenting, requiring, and determining are repeated one or more times in an iterative manner to improve the participant's cognition. The stimulus intensity may be adjusted each iteration based on the participant's response. Assessments may be performed.

A method on a computing device is provided for enhancing the memory and cognitive ability of an older adult by requiring the adult to differentiate between rapidly presented stimuli. The method trains the time order judgment of the adult by presenting upward and downward frequency sweeps, in random order, separated by an inter-stimulus interval. The upward and downward frequency sweeps are at frequencies common in formants which form the frequency components common in speech. Icons are associated with the upward and downward frequency sweeps to allow the adult to indicate an order in which the frequency sweeps are presented (i.e., UP-UP, UP-DOWN, DOWN-UP, and DOWN-DOWN). Correct selection of an order causes the inter-stimulus interval to be reduced, and/or the duration of the frequency sweeps to be adaptively shortened.
