We developed computer-based training of focused and distributed attention and of switching between global and local information processing and tested its effectiveness in healthy adolescents. In the experimental group (n = 11), training lasted 6 weeks, with three 20-min sessions per week. After each training session, participants received feedback on their performance and were able to track their progress. The control group (n = 10) received no intervention during this time. To test the effects of training, participants in both groups completed various cognitive tasks before and after training that shared features with the trained tasks to varying degrees. Compared to the control group, the experimental group showed greater improvements in reaction times on the selective attention and global-local processing tasks, while no consistent training effects were found on the other cognitive tests used. Thus, the results showed that the developed training can improve selected aspects of visual attention, but in line with most findings on cognitive training in the literature, the effect is limited to improved performance on tasks that are very similar to the trained tasksVidno pozornost, ki je pomembna kognitivna funkcija, saj pomaga izbrati relevantno in filtrirati nerelevantno informacijo iz vidnega prizora, je mogoče z urjenjem izboljšati.V raziskavi smo razvili računalniški trening fokusirane in razpršene pozornosti ter preklapljanja pozornosti med globalnim in lokalnim procesiranjem informacij in preverili njegovo učinkovitost pri zdravih mladostnikih. V eksperimentalni skupini (n = 11) so dijaki športne gimnazije šest tednov trikrat na teden po 20 minut reševali naloge za treniranje vidne pozornosti. Po koncu vsakega srečanja so dobili povratno informacijo o uspešnosti in so spremljali svoj napredek. Njihovi vrstniki v kontrolni skupini (n = 10) v tem času niso prejeli nobene intervencije. Za preverjanje učinkov treninga pozornosti so udeleženci obeh skupin pred in po treningu rešili različne kognitivne teste, med katerimi so bili nekateri bolj, drugi manj podobni treniranim nalogam. V primerjavi s kontrolno skupino so se v eksperimentalni skupini v večji meri skrajšali časi reagiranja na testu selektivne pozornosti in lokalno-globalnega procesiranja, medtem ko pri drugih uporabljenih kognitivnih testih nismo zaznali konsistentnih učinkov treninga. Rezultati so torej pokazali, da razviti trening lahko izboljša izbrane vidike vidne pozornosti, vendar je njegov učinek, skladno z večino ugotovitev o kognitivnih treningih v literaturi, omejen in se izboljša uspešnost reševanja le na nalogah, ki so zelo podobne treniranimTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaDruštvo psihologov Slovenije
