An action video game modifies visual processing.
In a recent paper, Shawn Green and Daphne Bavelier show that playing an action video game markedly improved subjects performance on a range of visual skills related to detecting objects in briefly flashed displays. This is noteworthy as previous studies on perceptual learning, which have commonly focused on well-controlled and rather abstract tasks, found little transfer of learning to novel st...
متن کاملNeural bases of selective attention in action video game players
Over the past few years, the very act of playing action video games has been shown to enhance several different aspects of visual selective attention, yet little is known about the neural mechanisms that mediate such attentional benefits. A review of the aspects of attention enhanced in action game players suggests there are changes in the mechanisms that control attention allocation and its ef...
متن کاملSelective Visual Attention in Electronic Video Surveillance
In this paper we describe how a model of selective visual attention, driven entirely by visual features might be used to attend to “unusual” events in a complex surveillance environment. For the purposes of illustration and elaboration we have used an implementation of an early processing model of attention (due to Itti and Koch [1]) to process ground-truth surveillance video
متن کاملVideo game training to improve selective visual attention in older adults
The current study investigated the effect of video game training on older adult's useful field of view performance (the UFOV® test). Fifty-eight older adult participants were randomized to receive practice with the target action game (Medal of Honor), a placebo control arcade game (Tetris), a clinically validated UFOV training program, or into a no contact control group. Examining pretest-postt...
متن کاملThe development of attention skills in action video game players.
Previous research suggests that action video game play improves attentional resources, allowing gamers to better allocate their attention across both space and time. In order to further characterize the plastic changes resulting from playing these video games, we administered the Attentional Network Test (ANT) to action game players and non-playing controls aged between 7 and 22 years. By emplo...
