App Profile: Strong Mind Mazes

Dr. Markus has used paper and pencil Strong Mind Mazes clinically since 2003 with children, adolescents, adults, traumatic brain injured patients, corporate executives and NASA scientists and engineers.

This is a game designed to enhance concentration, memory and problem solving.

Effective problem-solving and decision-making is based, at least in part, on the number of variables a problem solver or decision maker is capable of evaluating.

With deliberate rehearsal, individuals can learn to increase the number of variables that they use to make a decision. This skill reduces impulsivity and encourages the mental manipulation of ideas. Individuals develop a filter to think before they act or make a decision.

With over 1,000,000 maze variations, Strong Mind Mazes provides ample rehearsal to strengthen memory, concentration and problem solving. There are 5 Levels: Beginner, Intermediate, Accelerated, Advanced, and Expert. Within each Level there are 25 Mazes of increased difficulty. A wide palette of colors, patterns, and graphics promote play and learning.
