Abstract
The objective of this study is to identify the relationship between the use of Fibod Smart Balance and cognitive functions, mainly attention and memory while wearing eye tracking device. The variables studied were focused on the participants’ reaction time and accuracy. 30 participants from USM Kubang Kerian were chosen at random. To measure their memory and attention, they had to take Visual Search Task and Figure Memory Task before and after intervention while wearing the eye tracking device. During the intervention phase, 15 participants in the control group were requested to lead their normal life, whilst the other 15 participants in the intervention group had to undergo a series of practice for one month, which a total of 12 sessions consisting of 15 minutes per session. They had to play exergames called Table Soccer game in which they needed to practice their balance using a balance device called Fibod Smart Balance while playing the casual video games. Findings showed that there is no significant differences between intervention group and control group in terms of attention and memory. However, there is a significant difference between participants’ reaction time of the eye movement during the attention task (p<.001). Therefore, it can be concluded that there is no significant effect between 4 weeks of intervention of Fibod Smart Balance and Table Soccer game with attention and memory, but a significant improvement showed in the reaction time of participants’ eye movement during attention task.
