A Corrigendum on
Cognitive training with casual video games: points to consider
by Baniqued PL, Kranz MB, Voss MW, Lee H, Cosman JD, Severson J, et al. (2014) Front. Psychol. 4:1010. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2013.01010
The original publication contained an error that does not impact the significant findings and does not invalidate any conclusions derived from the study. In the WM-REAS 2 group, we inadvertently included data from one subject whose performance in the Attention Network Test (ANT) during post-testing met the exclusionary criteria. This resulted in an exaggerated negative transfer effect for the WM-REAS 2 group. After excluding this subject, the WM-REAS ANT-selective attention (also ANT-visual attention in the original manuscript) data is comparable with the other training groups (Figure 1). The results are consistent after reanalysis, with no significant transfer effect in ANT-selective attention [F(3, 154) = 0.004, p = 1.000, η2p < 0.001]. The reported association between sleep and ANT-selective attention in the original publication is no longer significant (r = 0.177, p = 0.310). The authors deeply regret this error.
