BioLink use different forms of biofeedback exercises to help individuals to increase focus and concentration and to become more consistent when performing a task. Many people don’t realise this, but
attention, or one’s ability to concentrate on a specific task for a specific
period of time can be measured. BioLink makes use of TOVA
technology, a computerised performance test (CPT), to measure your
level of attention (in lay terms). In other words, we can
measure the success of the concentration exercises by doing a test
before and after a series of sessions to show scientifically how the
student has improved. TOVA has been used in close to 3000 scientific
studies to measure attention. Who can benefit from BioLink? Brain exercise or cognitive exercise is
like physical exercise: anyone can benefit, regardless of age, gender,
profession, or educational background. Play Attention has been used in
many thousands of homes, by schools, learning centers, doctors’
offices, psychologists’ offices, olympic teams, universities, and
traumatic brain injury hospitals since 1994. Are the results lasting? Scientific research has demonstrated that the
brain is adaptable and capable of learning throughout life. This is
termed neuroplasticity. BioLink allows the user to view the attentive
state in real-time. Over time, through deliberate practice, students can
learn to increase focus and concentration. Deliberate practice entails
setting goals to improve skill performance. The interactive exercises
also challenge students to improve memory, finishing tasks, visual
tracking, and filtering out distractions. Gradually, even ADHD students
can retain the skills necessary to be successful in the classroom, work,
and home.
