Assessment of Attention-Deficit using a Dynamic-body Electronic Testing System

Abstract

This case study seeks to examine the changing nature of attention-deficit testing using a new wireless electronic tool called B-percept® protocol. The testing protocol consists to measure the participant’s perception of simple or complex visual (light), auditory (sound) and kinesthetic (vibration) stimuli, as triggered simultaneously or randomly. Tested with sportsmen and sedentary participants, the B-percept® system revealed that sportsmen accustomed to facing a changing human and/or physical environment are able to anticipate, to adapt and to react better-faster than sedentary participants. In future investigations, it might be possible to use B-percept® in a wider context where outcomes in the field of medicine, rehabilitation, disability or even training in specific task professions
