🔴 Eye Tracking for Translation Process Research
⚫️Thu, May 11, 2017 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM IRDT
🔵 The application of eye tracking technology for Translation Process Research enables researchers to assess the translator’s performance, cognitive processes and attention allocation during source text (ST) understanding and/or target text (TT) production.
The purpose of the webinar is to provide attendees with a set of guidelines on how to setup a study with eye tracking paradigms in Translation Process Research. We will learn what parameters we should pay particular attention to when designing a study and how eye tracking statistics from fixation-based metrics, pupillometry to saccade-based measures in combination with other sensors (e.g., EEG, GSR).

📚در مطالعه چاپ شده در مجله Brain Stimulation (ضریب تاثیر=5) 49 بیمار اسکیزوفرنی در دو گروه، تحریک واقعی و ساختگی را همراه با آموزش شناختی دریافت کردند. بهبود معناداری در تکلیف حافظه کاری تمرین شده و نیز در تعمیم به سایر تکالیف توجه و گوشبهزنگی دیده شد. این اولین مطالعهای است که اثرات بلندمدت معناداری از tDCS را در اسکیزوفرنی نشان میدهد. با توجه به درمانهای نه چندان موثر حال حاضر، تحریک الکتریکی مغز میتواند به روش مهمی در اصلاح مشکلات شناختی افراد دارای اسکیزوفرنی تبدیل گردد.
📚Stimulating cognition in schizophrenia: A controlled pilot study of the effects of prefrontal transcranial direct current stimulation upon memory and learning
⚪️Brain Stimulation
⭕️ Background: Schizophrenia is characterized by prominent cognitive deficits, impacting on memory and learning; these are strongly associated with the prefrontal cortex.
⭕️ Objective/hypothesis: To combine two interventions, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the prefrontal cortex and cognitive training, to examine change in cognitive performance in patients with schizophrenia.
⭕️ Methods: A double blind, sham-controlled pilot study of 49 patients with schizophrenia, randomized into real or sham tDCS stimulation groups. Subjects participated in 4 days of cognitive training (days 1, 2, 14, 56) with tDCS applied at day-1 and day-14. The primary outcome measure was change in accuracy on working memory and implicit learning tasks from baseline. The secondary outcome measure was the generalization of learning to non-trained task, indexed by the CogState neuropsychological battery. Data analysis was conducted using multilevel modelling and multiple regressions.
⭕️ Results: 24 participants were randomized to real tDCS and 25 to sham. The working memory task demonstrated a significant mean difference in performance in the tDCS treatment group: at day-2 (b = 0.68, CI 0.14–1.21; p = 0.044) and at day-56 (b = 0.71, 0.16–1.26; p = 0.044). There were no significant effects of tDCS on implicit learning. Trend evidence of generalization onto untrained tasks of attention and vigilance task (b = 0.40, 0.43–0.77; p = 0.058) was found.
⭕️ Conclusions: This is the first study to show a significant longer-term effect of tDCS on working memory in schizophrenia. Given the current lack of effective therapies for cognitive deficits, tDCS may offer an important novel approach to modulating brain networks to ameliorate cognitive deficits in schizophrenia.
