من طرف What is Play Attention?
What
would it be like if you could see your attention right now? View this short 2
minute video to see how it works.
Play Attention can be used in the
comfort of your home. It is a powerful learning system that uses a high-tech
helmet to read brain signals indicative of focus or concentration. These brain
signals control our computer games. Your mind becomes the mouse or joystick!
These games not only teach you to improve focus, but also to ignore
distractions, develop memory skills, finish tasks, and become organized. These
skills can improve school work, improve self-esteem, and make life at home much
happier.

support advisor will guide you every step of the way toward success. We give
you the software, the sensor-lined helmet, interface box, cables, power supply,

How does Play Attention
work?
Scientific research has
demonstrated that the brain is adaptable and capable of learning throughout
life. This is termed neuroplasticity. Play Attention allows the user to view
the attentive state in real-time. Over time, through deliberate practice, Play
Attention students can learn to increase focus and concentration. Deliberate
practice entails setting goals to improve skill performance. The interactive
exercises also challenge Play Attention students to improve memory, finishing
tasks, visual tracking, and filtering out distractions. Gradually, the student
can retain the skills necessary to be successful in the classroom, work, and
home.
When will we start seeing
results?
Typically within the first 30
days, minor changes will appear. These may include better listening skills,
beginning homework on one's own, or staying more organized. It is important to
understand that these are significant positive leaps forward for ADHD students
and must be rewarded/reinforced so that they are likely to be repeated.
Is it neurofeedback or
biofeedback?
Play Attention is not clinical
neuro or bio feedback. Neurofeedback is based on the theory that ADHD persons
have abnormal brainwave patterns. Neurofeedback practitioners contend that
normalizing these abnormal brainwave patterns can eliminate ADHD symptoms. Play
Attention does not strive to change brainwave patterns. Changing brainwave
patterns does not insure that one can become more organized, have better
short-term memory, ignore distractions, or even balance one's check book in a
normal amount of time. These are skills that must be learned and do not readily
appear after neurofeedback training. Play Attention teaches these skills and
insures transfer to the workplace and classroom.
Will Play Attention help
my child make friends?
Parents often clearly understand
that ADHD impairs their child's ability to make lasting friendships. Poor
social skills are closely intertwined with attention problems. By increasing
attention to social cues and increasing self-esteem, Play Attention is a
wonderful tool to help build lasting friendships.
How will Play Attention
help me at work or school?
Conservatively, 5% to 7% of all
children have ADHD. Roughly 60% to 70% of those children will carry their
attention problems into adulthood. The inability to finish assignments, stay
organized, remember things, or become easily distracted follow children into
adulthood where it's estimated billions of dollars are lost due to these
problems. Play Attention can teach organization, improve memory, train you to
complete tasks and become less distracted. These skills are vitally important
success at either school or the workplace.
