• Chess and Science
  Chess develops the scientific way of thinking. While playing, you generate numerous variations in your mind. You explore new ideas, try to predict their outcomes and interpret surprising revelations. You decide on a hypothesis, and then you make your move and test it.
• Chess improves schoolwork and grades
  Numerous studies have proven that kids obtain a higher reading level, math level and a greater learning ability overall as a result of playing chess. For all those reasons mentioned above and more, chess playing kids do better at school and therefore have a better chance to succeed in life.
• Chess develops the ability to see from someone else’s perspective
  Skilled chess players learn to anticipate an opponent’s next moves. To predict what another person will do next, a player must develop the ability to adopt another person’s perspective and infer what action they are likely to take.
• Chess leads to better planning skills
  Chess games are known for long periods of silent contemplation, during which players consider each move. Players spend time anticipating their opponents’ responses and attempting to predict every eventuality.
  That habit of mind — careful contemplation and planning — is one of the cognitive health benefits of playing chess.
• Chess teaches independence
  You are forced to make important decisions influenced only by your own judgment.

• Chess improves memory
  It might not be surprising to learn that expert chess players have strong memory skills. After all, the game involves memorizing numerous combinations of moves and their potential outcomes. In one experiment, researchers compared the recall ability of expert chess players to that of people with no chess-playing experience. They found that the chess players were significantly better at recalling lists of words they’d heard than people who had never played chess.
• Chess increases your intelligence
  People with lots of experience playing chess have highly developed thinking abilities in two areas (in addition to memory skills):
  • Fluid intelligence. This is the ability to consider new kinds of problems and use reasoning to solve them.
  • Processing speed. This is the ability to swiftly comprehend tasks and respond efficiently to challenges.
  A 2017 meta-analysis showed both of these forms of intelligence were present in chess masters.
• Chess elevates your creativity
  Researchers at a school in India tested the creative thinking skills of two groups of students. One group was trained in chess playing, and the other was not. The tests asked students to come up with alternate uses for common items and to interpret patterns and meaning in abstract forms. Students who played chess scored higher on tests. Researchers concluded that chess increased the students’ ability to exercise divergent and creative thinking.
