Program to develop cognitive skills for Learning Enhancement and Grade Level Recovery

Each participant is tested before attending the BEHAVIORAL RELATIONSHIP ENTRAINMENT program to determine their grade level of performance for reading and math skills.  The test is done by an outside testing agency.  Each participant is then tested upon exiting the BEHAVIORAL RELATIONSHIP ENTRAINMENT program to determine their progress.

Participants in the BEHAVIORAL RELATIONSHIP ENTRAINMENT Programs were received from a variety of sources.  In addition to those received from the low-middle class family, two thirds were received from homeless shelters, the county probation department, gang related referrals and social worker referrals.  The special education students were from two different economic climates.  The first special education group came from lower middle class to upper low class neighborhoods.  The second special education group came from upper middle to upper class economic neighborhoods.

81% of the participants carried baggage ranging from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, rape, suicidal, cutters, bi-polar, severe depression, ADD, ADHD, probationary and gang activity and low self-esteem.

19% of the participants were from average, middle class families.

Racial mix

  • 41% Hispanic,

  • 16% White
  • 8% Asian,
  • 1% Pacific Islander (Pilipino, Samoan etc.)

94% of the participants had used drugs ranging from casual use of marijuana to frequent use of ecstasy and strong hallucinates.

Entry testing shows the participants’ average grade level for Math at fourth grade.  The average reading skills are fifth grade range.  Lowest math and reading scores are below First Grade and the highest math and reading scores are first year college.  [The average is taken by removing the highest and the lowest grades.]

  • Program participants’ age range is fifteen through twenty-four.
  • Of the participants without their High School Diploma,
    • 18% read at a 1st to 3rd grade level,
    • 61% read at a 5th to 7th grade level.
    • 17% read at 6th to 8th grade level.
    • 4% read at a minimum 8th grade level.
  • Of the participants without their High School Diploma,
    • 6% math test placement at a first to 3rd grade level,
    • 81% math test placement at a 5th to 7th grade level.
    • 11% math test placement at 6th to 8th grade level.
    • 2% math tested a minimum 8th grade level.
  • Twenty percent have their high school diploma.  Of those with high school diplomas;
    • 21% read at a first to 3rd grade level,
    • 19% read at a 5th to 7th grade level.
    • 30% read at 6th to 8th grade level.
    • 30% read at a minimum 8th grade level.
  • Of the participants with their High School Diploma,
    • 1% math test placement at a first to 3rd grade level,
    • 66% math test placement at a 5th to 7th grade level.
    • 17% math test placement at 6th to 8th grade level.
    • 16% math tested a minimum 8th grade level.

We reviewed the program after six months and celebrated the following results:

  • Special education participants in Classroom Trials saw an average improvement of one and one half years grade level improvement in reading and math skills in only eight hours.
  • Participants in the Group two Classroom Trials [those participants who have learning difficulties] see an average of four and one half years grade level improvement in math and reading in only eight hours.
  • 57% increase in High School Diplomas and GED’s this six months over the previous year.
  • The average student gained 3.5 years in math skills after the 30 hour program.
  • The average student gained 4.5 years in reading skills after the 30 hour program.
  • 86% tripled their reading speed while improving comprehension rates to 100%
  • 9% increased their reading speed over 10x while improving comprehension rates to 100%.
  • 22% received at least one Association Awards for their Achievement in Academics.
  • 11% received two or more Association Awards for their Achievement in Academics.

These results were obtained in the 29.33 hour BEHAVIORAL RELATIONSHIP ENTRAINMENT program games and protocols were developed by Dr. Maness.

The BEHAVIORAL RELATIONSHIP ENTRAINMENT program does not teach core educational skills.  The BEHAVIORAL RELATIONSHIP ENTRAINMENT in a brain management program created by Dr. Dennis Maness.  The program entrains the brain to expand visual range, how to listen (not hear), how to process thought, How to change dominance in the brain, three ways to read, improving visual perspicacity.  The program is to augment any educational environment, class, subject and training program.   The purpose of the program is to teach students of all ages how to learn.
