Measuring sustained attention after traumatic brain injury: differences in key findings from the sustained attention to response task (SART).
Clinical reports after traumatic brain injury (TBI) suggest frequent difficulties with sustained attention, but their objective measurement has proved difficult. In 1997, Robertson and colleagues reported on a new sustained attention assessment tool, the sustained attention to response task (SART). Individuals with TBI were reported to produce more errors of commission on the SART than control ...
متن کاملSustained Attention After Traumatic Brain Injury
Sustained attention has been shown to be vulnerable following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Sleep restriction and disturbances have been shown to negatively affect sustained attention. Sleep disorders are common but under-diagnosed after TBI. Thus, it seems possible that sleep disturbances may exacerbate neuropsychological defi cits for a proportion of individuals who have sustained a TBI. The ...
متن کاملModelling Performance in the Sustained Attention to Response Task
We present a computational model of human performance on the Sustained Attention to Response Task, a computer-based task in which people must withhold responses to infrequent and unpredictable stimuli during a period of rapid and rhythmic responding to frequent stimuli. The model, formulated within the ACT-R cognitive architecture, accounts for human performance in terms of two competing strate...
متن کاملLesion neuroanatomy of the Sustained Attention to Response task.
The Sustained Attention to Response task is a classical neuropsychological test that has been used by many centres to characterize the attentional deficits in traumatic brain injury, ADHD, autism and other disorders. During the SART a random series of digits 1-9 is presented repeatedly and subjects have to respond to each digit (go trial) except the digit '3' (no-go trial). Using voxel-based le...
متن کاملFriendly Fire and the Sustained Attention to Response Task
OBJECTIVE We investigated whether losses of inhibitory control could be responsible for some friendly-fire incidents. BACKGROUND Several factors are commonly cited to explain friendly-fire incidents, but failure of inhibitory control has not yet been explored. The Sustained Attention to Response Task (SART) could be a valid model for inhibition failures in some combat scenarios. METHOD Part...
