Solution Overview
Problem
Individuals, particularly children, face challenges with executive functions such as time management, planning, and self-awareness, which are essential for completing tasks and solving problems, highlighting a need for improved systems to recognize and improve these limitations.
Innovation Solution
A data processing system utilizing a computer processor and memory to facilitate games that gather performance data, assess self-awareness, and provide feedback to users, allowing them to develop their executive functions through self-awareness assessments and training activities.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If traditional methods are used to assess executive function, then the assessment process is simple, but the measurement precision of self-awareness is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements automated feedback loops where performance data from games and activities is continuously collected, analyzed, and fed back to the user through reports and recommendations. This feedback mechanism enables precise self-awareness assessment by comparing actual performance metrics with user self-perceptions, thereby resolving the contradiction between measurement precision and system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces computer processors and software algorithms as intermediaries between the user and the assessment process. These intermediaries automatically collect, analyze, and interpret performance data, eliminating the need for complex manual assessment procedures while achieving high measurement precision through systematic data processing.
2Measurement precision
If comprehensive performance data is collected to improve assessment accuracy, then the measurement precision increases, but the quantity of data to be processed increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts only the most relevant performance metrics from the collected data through automated analysis algorithms. By identifying and extracting key indicators such as task completion time, accuracy rates, and behavioral patterns, the system maintains high measurement precision while reducing the effective data volume that requires human review or processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms raw performance data into standardized parameters and normalized metrics that are easier to process and compare. By changing the form of data representation through automated calculations and conversions, the system maintains comprehensive assessment capabilities while reducing processing complexity and data volume.
3Productivity
If automated evaluation is implemented to improve productivity, then the processing speed increases, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements self-service automation where computer processors automatically collect, analyze, and generate assessment reports without requiring manual intervention. The automated evaluation process serves itself by using pre-programmed algorithms to process performance data and generate insights, thereby increasing productivity while managing complexity through automation rather than human effort.
Data Source
AI summary
Data processing systems according to various embodiments are adapted to process data regarding the self-awareness of a user for use in the development of the user's executive function. In various embodiments, the data processing system: (1) executes computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one computer processor, facilitate the playing of a game by the user; (2) gathers performance data indicating the user's performance while the user plays the game; and (3) automatically evaluates the performance data to assess, for the user, the ability to remember to perform various tasks, to stay on task, and to coach others by taking perspective, giving feedback, and mentoring them to do well. The data processing system may gather and process related data on various levels and then use this information to assist the user in improving the user's executive function skills.
