Abstract

|
|
Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify some influences on improving attention abilities of disabled children through a computer-based attention program with eye movement (saccade, pursuit, and visual fixation).
Method: For this purpose, four children with attention problems participated in a clinical experiment. All participants were evaluated based on a Comprehensive Attention Test (CAT) and Star cancellation test before and after the planned intervention sessions. The intervention tool was a computer?based cognitive rehabilitation program using an input system with eye movement. Interventions were intensively carried out for eight weeks, half an hour per session, three times a week.
Results: The results were as follows. Selective attention, flanker task, and sustained attention were improved compared to before the intervention. The attention quotients showed positive changes in attention areas after intervention. The various attention quotients after intervention were higher than before. Furthermore, there were improvements in the attention quotients for the divided attention and working memory areas. All participants increased their response speed AQ in all attention areas.
Conclusions: These results indicate that attention training using an eye movement program has an effect on improving the selective attention, sustained attention, and flanker task. In particular, positive influences were shown on divided attention, working memory, and response speed for children with poor attention.
