1G dual n-back is OUTPUT GATED dual n-back.
The game alternates between 3 different response modes for what counts as an n-back match.
You have processed the information into your working memory, but based on the changing symbols described below, you have to regulate how you respond to this information.
Output gating training is specifically designed for increasing IQ levels – helping your ability to learn new skill sets, generalize, problem solve, make decisions, and use complex rules.
Output gating training also helps in the benefits you obtain from ‘mindware’ training with the IQ applied intelligence tutorials.
OR
2 dots: This is the classic dual n-back game. This implements an OR logic gate in how you respond. You respond to either a spatial match or a letter match or when both occur together as shown above.
XOR
2 dots divided by a line: This is a variation of the dual n-back, in which you only respond if there is an audio match but not a visual match, or a visual match but not an audio match. In other words, you do not respond if BOTH audio and visual matches occur together as shown above. This implements an XOR logic gate:
And
Equals sign: This is the opposite of the XOR. You only respond if there is a simultaneous audio and visual match, but not if there is a match of one of these alone as shown above. This implements an AND gate:
