Philippine Constitution is one of the topics under the General Information Part of the Civil Service Examination. The whole class of BAC 4-2 comprised 35 students who participated in the one-group pretest and posttest experimental research design. The results showed that after completing the brain training exercises, students'posttest scores considerably improved as compared to their pretest scores. It is surmised that using brain workouts helped students take the PH Constitution exam with greater test scores and better memory.  \nKeywords: brain train activities, Civil Service Exam, memory, mock test, Philippine Constitution, pretest, posttest, test scores.  \n1. INTRODUCTION  \nIn the information era, our mental ability must also learn to adapt to the concurrent sources of knowledge that support our intellectual growth. Effective information management is essential to maximizing our cognitive potential. Our cognitive capability also requires training in order to develop our ability to take in and absorb information, just like any other body function that can be improved with practice.  \nHarvard Medical School (2021) claims that mental activities that exercise the synaptic connections of various brain regions are necessary in addition to physical activities to increase the capacity of the human brain. These mental activities are responsible for enhancing our attention, memory, intelligence, or even executive functions. Since a lack of these stimulating activities might result in cognitive decline, cognitive testing is recommended by science as a way to keep our minds active. The Brain Training Activity is the name of this procedure.  \nAccording to a 2013 study published in Psychological Science, older adults between the ages of 60 and 90 performed better on long-term memory tests when they engaged in novel and difficult activities for an average of 16 hours per week over the course of three (3) months than when they did more routine things. This is due to the fact that brain training exercises are made to test our ability to think critically and perceivably. As a result, it offers the benefit of delaying the age-related deterioration in our cognitive abilities, increasing productivity, and retaining,  \nResearch has shown that keeping the mind active can prolong healthy brain performance and that it increases fundamental skills needed in everyday basic tasks which include memory recall, concentration, and problem-solving. A study in Psychological Science in 2013 revealed that older adults between the ages of 60 to 90 scored better on long-term memory tests by engaging in new and complex activities for an average of 16 hours per weekin a span of three (3) months, compared to those who did more familiar activities. This is because brain training activities are designed to challenge our brains’capacity to think and perceive. As a result, it offers the benefit of delaying the age-related loss in our cognitive abilities, optimizing productivity, and retaining, restoring, and enhancing our efficacy in carrying out a task.  \nPeople can desire to pursue cognitive training for a number of reasons. These include: 1. delaying aging-related cognitive decline; 2. promoting adult independence; and 3. honing mental aptitudes required for daily living. Given that people frequently forget even their social media account passwords, cognitive training is effective in helping them remember more knowledge that will be helpful in all situations.  \nAdditionally, ","cbCaihmnKOLz8qpV","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihmnKOLz8qpV","pdf",596063,17,"English","# INTRODUCTION\n## Concept and rationale for brain training\n## Prior research on cognitive improvement and aging\n## Purpose and statement of the problem","[{\"question\":\"What was the primary objective of the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study aimed to determine how well brain training exercises aided cognitive training in enhancing mock test score performance on the Philippine Constitution.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the experimental research conducted?\",\"answer\":\"The study used a one-group pretest and posttest experimental design with 35 BAC 4-2 students.\"},{\"question\":\"What were the main results after the brain training exercises?\",\"answer\":\"Students’ posttest scores improved considerably compared with their pretest scores, suggesting that brain workouts helped improve test performance and memory.\"}]","Brain Training Activities as an Aid-4-2 Score - Boosting the BAC 4-2 Score in the Philippine Constitution Mock Test | PDF",1790766870,43,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":99},[100,104,108,111,116,121,126,130,135,138,142],{"id":22,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":101,"show_sort_weight":102,"slug":103},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":26,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":105,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":107},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":33,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":109,"slug":110},70,"exam",{"id":112,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":113,"show_sort_weight":114,"slug":115},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":117,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":118,"show_sort_weight":119,"slug":120},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":122,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":123,"show_sort_weight":124,"slug":125},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":55,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":127,"show_sort_weight":128,"slug":129},"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":131,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":132,"show_sort_weight":133,"slug":134},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":133,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":136,"show_sort_weight":133,"slug":137},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":139,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":140,"show_sort_weight":139,"slug":141},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":143,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":144,"show_sort_weight":112,"slug":145},19,"General","general"]
