Task-Switching Paradigm. The Effect of Mechanical Repetition on Cognitive Performance


Academic Paper, 2017

16 Pages, Grade: 1.0


Abstract or Introduction

The cognitive performance of a subject can be affected by several factors, such as the formulation of a question, amount of tasks that need to be managed simultaneously and the number of times an action is repeated. The purpose of this project was to implement a very simple program that enables the gathering of data gained from test subjects to be mostly unaffected by external factors. The core idea was to investigate the effect of the repetition on a task on its performance and present it to test subjects as a short and simple game to test their attention and reaction times.
