简要总结
The COVID-19 pandemic has created a shift in the use of at-home spaces for work, play and research. In the current study, the feasibility of implementing an at-home cognitive training tool called NeuroTrackerX, an anaglyph version of the three-dimensional multiple object tracking (3D-MOT) software NeuroTracker was examined, and with the intent of developing an effective protocol and determining the suitability of this tool for research purposes .
详细描述
The work looks at the feasibility of using a newly developed anaglyph 3D cognitive training tool called NeuroTrackerX in research with adult participants. The work looks to validate an at-home program by comparing participants who complete an online version of Neurotracker (NeurotrackerX) with a group of individuals who completed the classically used in-lab version (Neurotracker). Due to COVID-19, many laboratories forced to transition to remote-based studies, and the purpose of the work is to validate the remote-based protocol. Twenty cognitively healthy adults (10 Male; 10 female) were recruited to engage in this at-home program. The results of these individuals will be compared with results from a group of cognitively healthy adults who had previously engaged in the in-lab version of the program prior to the pandemic.
