Description: NCS Product SynopsisUpdate: September 15, 2006«©NCSX» Imagine a typical buster named Harold. As he marches towards old age, Harry's body and mind begin to deteriorate and lose their youthful exuberance. Harry is a pre-emptive sort of player however and works out at the gym to stave off the effects of age on his body. With that taken care of, Harry also has to maintain his mind. He's tried Nintendo's Brain Age but wants more. Enter Sega's Nounenrei software which uses a protocol known as the Advanced Trail Making Test (ATMT) which was developed by a medical doctor named Osami Kajimoto of Soiken Inc and the University of Osaka's Dept. of Psychiatric Medicine. The ATMT is used to test brain functions when a subject is fatigued or under stress. The basic test consists of a "visual search and response" exercise where 25 figures are pushed or in the case of the NDS, tapped in quick sequence. To establish a baseline for the test taker, the first ATMT exercise prompts the player to tap the numbers from 1 to 25 in order along with Japanese syllables in order and mixes them up. For example, tap number "1" followed by the Japanese hiragana character for "ah" and then tap "2" followed by the hiragana for "i" and so on and so forth. If a cue is missed, the top screen shows what must be tapped in order to proceed. The total number of items that require tapping is 50 but players may also select the next exercise where only numbers are tapped from 1 to 25 as quickly as possible. A third variant shifts around all of the numbered circles once one is tapped to mix things up. After the test, the software displays your performance and charts it against a database of other test takers from a large comparative sample. Once the record is established, it's time to take some tests and improve your brain functionality under duress. JAN Code: 4974365910181Japanese Title: 脳年齢 脳ストレス計 アタマスキャン
