Abstract
A method for testing and/or training cognitive ability, including the steps of testing a preliminary cognitive level of a user and receiving results representative therefrom. According to the results, the cognitive level may then be broken up into separate discrete cognitive skills, and one or more tasks may be created, each task related to each of the separate discrete cognitive skills. The one or more tasks may then be presented to the user and so that a current cognitive level of the user is re-tested, and results representative therefrom are received. This process may be repeated at least one time.
Claims36
A method for diagnosing and training cognitive ability of a user, the method comprising:
- presenting a stimulus;
- receiving a motion input generally in response to said stimulus;
- analyzing cognitive skills of said motion input for a diagnosis
- to selecting one or more tasks to train said cognitive skills.
A computer software storage device comprising a program, said program being configured to present stimulus to a user, to receive a motion input generally in response to said stimulus and to analyze cognitive aspects of said motion input.
A method of diagnosing and training cognitive levels of a user, the method comprising:
- presenting a stimulus;
- receiving a motion input generally in response to said stimulus;
- analyzing cognitive skills of said motion input for a diagnosis;
- said analyzing comprising:
- testing a preliminary cognitive level of said user and receiving results representative therefrom;
- breaking up said results to separate discrete cognitive skills;
- according to said results, creating one or more tasks intended to train one or more of said separate discrete cognitive skills;
- presenting one or more tasks to said user;
- and
- updating said step of presenting in accordance with results from said step of analyzing;
- and
- repeating said steps of processing, receiving, analyzing and updating so that selected discrete cognitive skills are re-presented for improving the user's cognitive level.
A method for diagnosing and training cognitive ability, the method comprising:
- testing a preliminary cognitive level of a user and receiving results for a diagnosis;
- breaking up said results to separate discrete cognitive skills;
- according to said results, creating one or more tasks intended to train one or more of said separate discrete cognitive skills;
- presenting one or more tasks to said user;
- re-testing a current cognitive level of said user and receiving results representative therefrom.
A system for training and diagnosing cognitive ability, the system comprises:
- a motion input device;
- an output device which provides a stimulus, said stimulus is affected by a user manipulating said input device;
- an analyzer which analyzes data from said input device and diagnoses therefrom cognitive levels;
- and
- a computing unit which assigns tasks to be executed by said user, wherein said tasks are intended to train said cognitive levels of said user.
A method for diagnosing and training cognitive ability of a user, said method comprising:
- testing a cognitive level of a user;
- comparing said cognitive level to analyzed data stored in a database for a diagnosis, and
- creating one or more tasks in accordance with said cognitive level, said tasks for training said cognitive level of said user.
A method for diagnosing cognitive skills and training driving skills of a user, the method comprising the steps of:
- presenting stimuli relevant to driving situations;
- receiving motion input from said user in response to said stimulus;
- analyzing cognitive aspects of said input for diagnosis;
- interpolating said analyzed aspects into cognitive skills applicable for, driving skills;
- adjusting said stimulus according to said analyzed aspects;
- selecting one or more tasks to train said cognitive skills applicable for driving skills;
- executing said one or more tasks;
- and
- repeating said presenting, receiving, analyzing, interpolating, adjusting, selecting and executing one or more times.
