Working Memory Practice (N-Back) for Aphasia

Was this picture the same as the one before? N-Back is a classic working-memory exercise — and working memory is the scratchpad language runs on. When it is stretched thin, conversations are hard to follow and sentences fall apart mid-thought.

This version is built for aphasia: pictures and words, gentle levels, no time panic. Part of the Premium library.

The research on memory training and language is young but promising — see can memory and attention games help aphasia? Pair with sentence listening to apply the gains to language. Read the Working Memory guide — how it works and who it is used with.
