Hi Sheryl, there’s a few different reasons this may be happening here are some solutions!
• Your Flash Player is “zoomed in.” Right click the game area and click “Show all” This should zoom to the appropriate level.
• Your browser view is “zoomed in.” Sometimes you can change your zoom level by holding down the control key and using the scroll wheel on your mouse. You can try to change it that way, or you can look in your browser menus for a “zoom in/out” option. You can also right click on the area that isn’t working, then choose “zoom out.”
• Your browser is set to display text in a larger font than normal. This option usually appears in the preferences or view menu on your browser. Check to make sure that your text sizes are at “normal.”

Comment on New Game BPIs and Other BPI Improvements by hfryd

Hey Jesus, BPI is the foundation of all the personalized feedback we give our users, so to preserve the accuracy of our program, we put a lot of care and analysis into our BPI algorithms. Before creating a BPI calculation for a game, we gather and analyze score distributions across a wide range of users. So BPI won’t be available when our games are still in the analysis phase. However we just release BPI for 6 of our games back in May. You can read the blog post about them here – http://bit.ly/iflH8f

Lumosity Points are a general measure of how active you’ve been within Lumosity. You can earn Lumosity Points by playing games, inviting friends, and completing training programs but they won’t affect your BPI.

Hi Xenastar – We actually have a TBI program which was designed for a study with researchers at the Comprehensive Combat and Complex Casualty Care group at the Naval Medical Center San Diego and the San Diego VA Hospital. Their study is ongoing. The Walter Reed Medical Center is also using Lumosity with returning active duty and veteran soldiers with TBI and PTSD.
