Filter by:At level 3 conditionally automated, the vehicle ensures driving and the driver disengages from driving to perform another activity independent of driving (ex: read a book, play on his phone ....). However, drivers are expected to be available to take over control for the case of system failure or limitation. This take-over control must take place in a limited time, very short, of the order of a few seconds. To take-over control of the vehicle quickly and efficiently, the driver must be, at the time of take-over, vigilant, efficient, and attentive to the environment and focused on the take-over of manual driving. Predicting the driver's reengagement capabilities to ensure that the driver will be able to take-over control of the vehicle is crucial at level 3 of autonomous driving. The objective of ANTIDOTE is to determine physiological and behavioural parameters capable of predicting the take-over quality in level 3 conditionally automated vehicles in a simulated highway driving situation in healthy drivers or drivers with attention disorders.
A brain injury can damage the brain, so that it no longer receives information about the space around one side of the world. If this happens, people may not be aware of anything on one side, usually the same side they also lost their movement (the most affected side). This severe condition is called spatial neglect. Currently there is no recommended diagnostic test or clinically-proven treatment for the condition. In a recent study, the investigators found a long-lasting reduction in neglect if people practiced picking-up an object with their unaffected hand. This intervention is called Spatial Inattention Grasping Home-based Therapy (SIGHT). It requires people to lift wooden rods of different lengths. Once a person is familiar with the task, they can practice on their own at a time convenient to them in their homes. The investigators have developed the first computerized version of SIGHT (c-SIGHT) as well as a novel diagnostic test for neglect using portable low-cost motion-tracking technology that can be used in the patient's home. In the proposed study, the investigators will investigate how usable and acceptable this technology is in people's homes. Stroke survivors (recruited from community settings) will undergo a 7-day self-led training at their homes with c-SIGHT. At the end of the intervention, 1:1 semi-structured interviews will be carried out with both stroke survivors and carers to investigate usability and acceptability of c-SIGHT. Moreover, spatial neglect, carer burden and motor function will be assessed pre- and post-completion of c-SIGHT.
Some of the most common, persistent, and disabling consequences of traumatic brain injury affect an individual's ability to achieve personal goals. Interventions that strengthen abilities such as being able to concentrate, remember, stay calm and overcome challenges, could have far reaching benefits for Veterans. One challenge in rehabilitation is that response to training can be highly variable, and a better understanding of the neural bases for this variability could inform care. This pilot project will test the clinical behavioral effects of a cognitive skill training intervention and explore to what extent changes in markers of the brain's electrical activity (using the non-invasive technique of electroencephalograms, EEG) can explain differences in responses to skill training.
The aims of this survey are to assess the relationships between exposure to screens of digital media devices, sleep patterns, and daily function such as subjective sleepiness and attention abilities in adult Israel population
The main purpose of the study is to find out if MBSR (Mindfulness) in addition to occupational therapy, can improve the therapeutic results in stroke-patients and help relatives of stroke patients to improve their quality of life.
This study is designed to investigate effects on attentional performance and motoric activity of 100 mg microencapsulated glycine (Bidicin® from Biotiki®) compared to placebo after treatment with t.i.d. sublingual doses over 3 weeks each. The primary objective of the study is to determine the effects on attentional performance and motoric activity of 100 mg microencapsulated Glycine (Bidicin® from Biotiki® ) compared to placebo after treatment with t.i.d. sublingual doses over 3 weeks each in children with low attentional performance and high motoric activity. A number of 30 prepuberal boys and girls aged 6 - 14 years with low attentional performance and high motoric activity will be enrolled in this study. The prepuberal status will be determined by Tanner stages ≤ 3.
The objective of this research is to develop original virtual reality scenarios and/or new virtual reality equipments to evaluate or diagnose pathologies, such as attention deficit disorders or neuropsychiatric pathologies, addiction, anxiety or depression or pathologies interfering with sleep/wake disorders.
