Virtual Reality Interventions for Older Adults With Mild Cognitive Impairment: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Virtual Reality Interventions for Older Adults With Mild Cognitive Impairment: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Since there are few medications or dietary therapy that can improve cognitive function or slow MCI progression, nonpharmacological treatments have received attention [9,10]. In nonpharmacological interventions, VR has received a lot of attention. It helps the user to create a real sense of presence and immersion in the virtual world by using multiple sensory stimuli (visual, auditory, tactile, and olfactory) [11,12].

Using Virtual Reality to Improve Classroom Behavior in People With Down Syndrome: Within-Subjects Experimental Design

Using Virtual Reality to Improve Classroom Behavior in People With Down Syndrome: Within-Subjects Experimental Design

Staff observed participants and provided ratings for changes on the following 6 factors (proceeding examples were also listed): (1) mood, (2) attention (eg, listening to instructions, not distracted, not looking around), (3) activity (eg, jumping out of the seat, walking around class inappropriately), (4) impulses (eg, blurting out answers before questions completed, interrupting others, butt into conversations, failing to wait turn), (5) anxiety (eg, fidgeting, bite hands/nails, twitch, pace, shake, hand/feet

Involuntary Attention Restoration During Exposure to Mobile-Based 360° Virtual Nature in Healthy Adults With Different Levels of Restorative Experience: Event-Related Potential Study

Involuntary Attention Restoration During Exposure to Mobile-Based 360° Virtual Nature in Healthy Adults With Different Levels of Restorative Experience: Event-Related Potential Study

Involuntary attention, also called fascination, is a central component of a restorative experience. Although involuntary attention requires no effort and is resistant to fatigue, directed or focused attention requires a capacity for concentration that can become depleted by taxing task demands, leading to stress responses or impaired performance [1-3]. Individuals can rapidly restore depleted attentional resources by using involuntary attention and allowing directed attention to be in a resting state [4].

Improvement of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Symptoms in School-Aged Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Autism via a Digital Smartglasses-Based Socioemotional Coaching Aid: Short-Term, Uncontrolled Pilot Study

Improvement of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Symptoms in School-Aged Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Autism via a Digital Smartglasses-Based Socioemotional Coaching Aid: Short-Term, Uncontrolled Pilot Study

Many people with ASD experience symptoms of inattention and hyperactivity, and approximately one-third of people with ASD have diagnosable attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) [1,2]. There are considerable gaps in knowledge in how to provide optimal assessment and management of this group of patients [3]. Early diagnosis and intervention are beneficial for both ASD [4] and ADHD [5].

Using Twitter to Examine Stigma Against People With Dementia During COVID-19: Infodemiology Study

Using Twitter to Examine Stigma Against People With Dementia During COVID-19: Infodemiology Study

Tweets brought attention to systemic issues around health care access and availability for people with dementia by describing how they deteriorated due to COVID-19 pandemic conditions. The elder care situation is abhorrent even in the best of times. I witnessed firsthand options in USA for a self pay mother and father w/ dementia and is very dismal. The culture devaluation of elders and economic vulture capitalism has created a living nightmare.

The sustained attention was evaluated as well. The task was to respond to a target stimulus while ignoring distracting stimuli presented on a 15-in. computer screen. In this version the stimuli were pictograms of a fish oriented either toward the left or toward the right.

These are as follows: (1) the quantity of instructions and feedback that therapists give and (2) the focus of attention (FOA) derived from these instructions and feedback statements [1]. Many factors can influence the process of motor learning.

Effects of Background Music on Attentional Networks of Children With and Without Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: Case Control Experimental Study

Effects of Background Music on Attentional Networks of Children With and Without Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: Case Control Experimental Study

At present, there is a lack of data assessing the impact of music listening on the attention networks of children with ADHD. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of music listening on the attention networks—namely, alerting, orienting, and conflict—in children with ADHD and typically developing children, while also exploring the relationship with the attentional profile of these children.

Adaptive P300-Based Brain-Computer Interface for Attention Training: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Adaptive P300-Based Brain-Computer Interface for Attention Training: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Cognition includes many facets of complex processing functions, such as, and not limited to, attention, the acquirement of knowledge, memory, decision-making, and comprehension [1]. Cognitive deficits often present as symptoms in many underlying neurological disorders. In the aging population, cognitive decline is common, however, can be accelerated by neurodegenerative diseases, such as dementia, or through brain trauma and stroke.
