Resumen
Cognitive decline threatens autonomy and well‑being, yet the resources required for early detection and personalized intervention remain scarce. Digital platforms that embed both assessment and training in a single workflow can help close that gap, provided that their psychometric foundations and clinical benefits are demonstrated transparently. CogniFit’s computerized Cognitive Assessment Battery (CAB) PRO™ measures five core domains—attention, memory, perception, coordination, and reasoning— and automatically recommends an adaptive Computerized Cognitive Training (CCT) plan calibrated to the user’s deficits. Here we synthesize the empirical literature on the platform, present new lifespan normative data from a large sample (N = 82,129), and summarize the reported effects of training across healthy and clinical populations. We discuss practical implications for digital health deployment in schools, workplaces, and geriatric care, and propose future directions for ecological outcome tracking.
