| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed a tablet-based system to assess attention function of older adults and patients in clinical settings. Preliminary experiments were conducted with healthy older adults and patients with attention disorder. Three types of reaction time (RT) tasks, simple RT, appearing RT and changing speed RT, and two newly developed games, Whack-A-Mole and Eye-Exercise, were implemented in the system. The data collected by conducting the RT tasks and the games were stored in a developed cloud based database system as well as in the tablet used for the experiments. As a results, some new findings about an effect of continuous use of the Whack-A-Mole game on RTs of the changing speed task and the duration of the effect after suspending the use of the Whack-A-Mole game were discussed. More experiments are necessary to confirm the effectiveness of the Whack-A-Mole game for patients with attention disorder.
