A Comparison of Auto Train Brain Neurofeedback Rewarding Interfaces in Terms of Efficacy

Öz:
- Auto Train Brain is a mobile app that was specifically developed for dyslexic children to increase their reading speed and reading comprehension. In the original mobile app, there was only one unique neurofeedback user interface that provided visually and audibly rewarding feedback to the subject with a red-green colored arrow on the screen. Later on, new modules are added to the app with the requests of the end-users. These are the “youtube” video-based interface, “Spotify” auditory-based interface, and arrow interface which gives visual and auditory cues. In this research, we have compared the efficacy of the neurofeedback rewarding interfaces. The experiment group consists of 20 dyslexic children aged 7-to 10 (15 males, 5 females) who have preferred one interface over the others each day and used it at home for more than six months. The result indicates that though the “youtube” interface is liked most by the participants, the arrow-based simple neurofeedback interface reduces theta brain waves more than other rewarding schemes. On the other hand, “youtube” and “spotify” based interfaces increase Beta band powers more than the arrow interface in the cortex. The ”Spotify” user interface improves the fast brain waves more on the temporal lobes (T7 and T8) as the feedback given was only auditory.

Auto Train Brain nörogeribildirim ödüllendirme arayüzlerinin etkinlik açısından karşılaştırılması

Öz:
Arka plan/amaç: Auto Train Brain, disleksili çocukların okuma hızını ve anlama düzeyini artırmak için özel olarak geliştirilmiş bir mobil uygulamadır. Orijinal mobil uygulamada, yalnızca bir benzersiz nörogeribildirim kullanıcı arayüzü, ekranın kırmızı-yeşil renkli bir oku ile konuya görsel ve işitsel olarak ödüllendirici geri bildirimi sağlıyordu. Daha sonra, kullanıcı talepleriyle uygulamaya yeni modüller eklendi. Bunlar “youtube”video tabanlı arayüz ve “Spotify”işitsel tabanlı arayüzdür. Bu araştırmada, nörogeribildirim ödüllendirme arayüzlerinin etkinliğini karşılaştırdık. Malzemeler ve yöntemler: Deney grubu, 6 ay ve üzeri süreyle evde bir ödüllendirme arayüzü kullanan ve 7 ila 10 yaş arasında (15 erkek, 5 kadın) disleksili çocuktan oluşmaktadır. Sonuçlar: Sonuçlar, “youtube” arayüzünün katılımcılar tarafından en çok beğenilmesine rağmen, ok şeklindeki basit nörogeribildirim arayüzüne göre daha az theta beyin dalgaları azalttığını göstermektedir. Diğer yandan, “youtube” ve “Spotify” tabanlı arayüzler, kortekste ok arayüzlerinden daha fazla beta bant güçlerini artırmaktadır. “Spotify” kullanıcı arayüzü, sadece işitsel olarak verilen geri bildirim nedeniyle temporal loblarda (T7 ve T8) hızlı beyin dalgalarını daha da iyileştirir. Çalışmanın özeti: Sonuçlar, disleksili çocuğun özel durumuna göre ilgili nörogeribildirim ödüllendirme arayüzünün seçilmesi gerektiğini göstermektedir.
Anahtar Kelime: Nörogeribildirim çoklu duyusal QEEG Auto Train Brain.
