Cognitive Flexibility Training

Meaning

Cognitive Flexibility Training represents a set of structured neurocognitive exercises and behavioral interventions designed to enhance the brain’s ability to switch between different mental sets, tasks, or strategies in response to changing demands. This executive function is critical for problem-solving, adapting to novel situations, and managing complex information without mental rigidity. Clinically, improving cognitive flexibility is vital for maintaining optimal neuroendocrine function, as it relates to the efficient processing of internal and external stimuli and the appropriate hormonal response.
