Estudo apresenta novo método para prever o desempenho em treinamentos de segurança na construção civil baseado em realidade virtual

Trabalhadores da construção civil mais jovens e qualificados tendem a apresentar níveis menores de fadiga e excitação emocional em treinamentos de segurança baseados em realidade virtual (VR, na sigla em inglês). Esta é a principal conclusão de um estudo realizado recentemente na Coreia do Sul e publicado na revista Automation in Construction, no qual os pesquisadores utilizaram o aprendizado de máquina para prever o desempenho de aprendizagem individual em programas virtuais de segurança ocupacional. Para isso, eles seguiram um método baseado em respostas biométricas em tempo real coletadas por meio do rastreamento ocular e eletroencefalografia (EEG).

Low Stress Levels Enhance Working Memory Performance

Study reveals an inversely proportional association between stress and working memory, showing that low levels can be beneficial In the complex landscape of neuroscience, studying the interactions between stress and cognition is crucial for understanding the human mind. Recently, researchers from the Human Connectome Project, an initiative launched in 2010 by the United States National […]

Studies on Neuronal Connections May Enhance Teaching Methods

Studies carried out to identify which stimuli create and strengthen neuronal connections could help improve teaching methodologies Phenomena such as learning processes and memory formation are linked to changes in neurons and the connections between them, known as synapses. These changes are not directly related to the formation of new neurons, but primarily to modifications […]
