Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Visual sustained attention is the ability of the observer to detect non-recurrent and unpredictable triggers over a long period of time during cognitive work. Timepoint: Assessment of persistent vision attention in the first, second and third phase of the study. Method of measurement: Visual sustained attention is evaluated by standardized test set-up of the CANTAB.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The skin temperature of the prefrontal area. Timepoint: In the first, second and third phase of the study. Method of measurement: Polygeraghy sensor.;The amount of blood flow of prefrontal cortex. Timepoint: In the first, second and third phase of the study. Method of measurement: Hemoencephalography device.
