The use of the remote mobile application "Aita" for training and restoring cognitive functions among adults

The research paper presents an analysis of results from using the remote mobile application "Aita" for training and restoring cognitive functions in mature individuals. The application "Aita" is designed to diagnose and to correct mild to moderate cognitive impairments in individual work conditions. With sections "Neurodynamics", "Memory", "Attention", and six other subsections: "Spatial Memory", "Pictograms", "Memorizing Objects", "Schulte Tables", "Information Selection", "Search for Duplicate Words". To assess its psychocorrectional effectiveness, the study included 54 mature subjects, of whom 36 did not have cognitive disorders and 18 subjects noted that they had impaired attention, memory and reaction speed. The course of training with the help of the application consisted of daily remote training in all sections and subsections of the application for 7 days. The first lesson was diagnostic. After passing the diagnostic testing, 50 participants chose the easy level of difficulty and 4 participants the average level of difficulty for further training. Before the course, each participant in the study was given instructions on the need for daily training in all sections and subsections of the application once a day. It was allowed to split the daily lesson into several approaches during the day and skip training for no more than 1 day. The results of the weekly distance course showed a training and psychocorrectional effectiveness from the classes. In the group without cognitive impairments, the main effect observed was in the "Neurodynamics" section and in some subsections of "Attention" and "Memory". Improvement in reaction speed, correctness and speed of task completion and a tendency to reduce the number of errors in the "Neurodynamics" section were recorded. A decrease in the time to complete the Schulte Table subsection and a tendency to a faster completion of the "Memorizing" objects subsection were revealed after a week of training. In the group with cognitive impairments, the effect of the classes was similar only in the "Neurodynamics" section; an increase in the number of levels completed in the "Memory" section, the "Memorizing objects" subsection was also recorded. Additionally, the sensitivity of the "Neurodynamics" section to the detection of mild cognitive impairment in adults was revealed.
