SMART means:

Strengthening Mental Abilities with Relational Training

SMART brain training is a revolutionary cognitive enhancement system developed by our own scientific researchers. The founders of RaiseYourIQ are established University-based researchers in the behavioral and cognitive sciences and have had their scientific work on learning and cognition published across a wide range of reputable scientific journals. SMART is the only system of brain training, that has been proven to enhance general intelligence and its components, as well as reading ability, numerical ability and educational aptitude.

SMART is based on a widely used approach to learning and cognition known as Relational Frame Theory, with which our founders are intimately associated. The research underlying SMART and the studies proving its effectiveness have been conducted by several independent laboratories around the world.

SMART brain training helps kids and adults to become expert in a range of critical cognitive skills, called Relational Skills. These skills underlie just about everything we do in school, business, at work and in normal day-to-day decision making and problem-solving.

Decades of published research has now shown that it is our relational skills that help us to understand the relationships between things, such as words and objects in the world around us. For example, any two things can be the same as each other, different, or opposite to each other. One may be more than the other, or less, and so on. Our research and the research of other laboratories has shown that almost all intellectual skills rely in turn on the fluency of these basic relational skills and that when you enhance relational skills, significant IQ increases follow.

SMART teaches some basic relational skills to a very high level of fluency, so that mathematical, logical and verbal concepts make more sense and solutions to problems are arrived at more easily.
