Human Attention Span Modeling using 2D Visualization Plots for Gaze Progression and Gaze Sustenance

Pendidikan inklusif kini menjadi fokus perhatian dalam upaya pemberian layanan pendidikan bagi semua anak, termasuk anak berkebutuhan khusus. Berbagai permasalahan kerap dijumpai dalam proses pembelajaran di kelas inklusif, untuk itu penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis modifikasi alur pembelajaran harian pendidikan inklusif di Raudhatul Athfal An-Nahl, Jakarta. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis penelitian studi kasus. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Teknis analisis data menggunakan model analisis interaktif Miles and Huberman, serta pengujian keabsahan data dengan metode triangulasi. Hasil penelitian menemukan modifikasi alur pembelajaran harian di RA. An-Nahl terdiri dari pre-opener, opener, energizer, activity, linking dan summeryzing, review, mission, dan closer. Hal yang perlu diperhatikan dalam proses pembelajaran adalah engagement, attention span, readiness, activity, reviewing, learning outcomes dan parallel learning outcomes. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa modifikasi alur pembelajaran harian mampu mengakomodir kelebihan maupun kelemahan sesuai karakter masing-masing siswa, serta mampu mengatasi permasalahan dalam proses pembelajaran di kelas inklusif.

In this case study, we present a patient with preexistent posttraumatic stress disorder and psychosis who has been recently diagnosed with Dementia with Lewy Bodies. He is experiencing vivid hallucinations. What went wrong between him and his wife as a result of these hallucinations is presented. Alternative actions that could have been used are suggested. Objectives At the end of this case study, readers will know the following: The characteristic clinical features of Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB). Patients experiencing hallucinations should not be contradicted, to them, these hallucinations are real. Easy distractibility and short attention span can be exploited to avert or defuse potentially catastrophic situations. Patients with dementia should not have access to loaded guns.

Human Participants

The literature has long emphasized the neocortex’s role in volitional processes. In this work, we examined endogenous orienting in an evolutionarily older species, the archer fish, which lacks neocortex-like cells. We used Posner’s classic endogenous cuing task, in which a centrally presented, spatially informative cue is followed by a target. The fish responded to the target by shooting a stream of water at it. Interestingly, the fish demonstrated a human-like “volitional” facilitation effect: their reaction times to targets that appeared on the side indicated by the precue were faster than their reaction times to targets on the opposite side. The fish also exhibited inhibition of return, an aftermath of orienting that commonly emerges only in reflexive orienting tasks in human participants. We believe that this pattern demonstrates the acquisition of an arbitrary connection between spatial orienting and a nonspatial feature of a centrally presented stimulus in nonprimate species. In the literature on human attention, orienting in response to such contingencies has been strongly associated with volitional control. We discuss the implications of these results for the evolution of orienting, and for the study of volitional processes in all species, including humans.

Recently, an article in Pediatrics by Costin et al.1 described two new cases of hypothyroidism and precocious sexual development. I would like to report another similar case with our available data. M.L.M., a 13-year-old girl was first seen by us at age 12-4/12 for short stature. Her history included growth retardation, diminution of attention span, somnolence, anorexia with weight gain, and constipation beginning between ages 4 to 6. At 9½ years of age irregular menses began, breast development was first noticed at 10 years, and pubic hair at 11½ years. Her initial admission data are in Table I.

I accept your invitation to comment on the letter of Dr. Ralph Olsen on "Pediatric Practice: "Whose Mood Are We Altering?" in Pediatrics1 and the responses of Dr. Turner2 and Dr. Arnold3 in Pediatrics. Certainly, in any large group of school children, one can find a significant number of children, mostly boys, who are extremely active and who have all the associated findings of the "hyperkinetic syndrome" or the "minimal cerebral dysfunction syndrome"-the short attention span, the poor capacity to concentrate, the poorly controlled impulsivity, and so forth.

Evolutionary Comparisons

With colourful plumage, charismatic character and vocal learning abilities, parrots are one of the most striking and recognizable bird groups. Their attractiveness has drawn human attention for centuries, and members of the Psittaciformes order were, also, among the first avian species to be subject to cytogenetic studies which have contributed to understand their taxonomic and evolutionary relationships.We present here the karyological results collected by the study of thirteen parrot species new to karyology. These results are additionally supported by G banded preparations obtained in five species.The order Psittaciformes is an interesting example of a, typically, non migratory avian lineage with Gondwanaland origin, whose evolutionary radiation has been shaped by the Cenozoic geographic and climatic events that affected the land masses derived from the Gondwanaland continental split.We discuss the results of our studies, in conjunction with the previously compiled Psittaciformes cytogenetic data to delineate a picture of the chromosomal evolution of the order, concurrently with the biogeographic history of the lands in the southern Hemisphere.Considering the available data on parrot cytogenetics, a "standard parrot karyotype pattern" is proposed for evolutionary comparisons.Several biogeographic, and phylogenetically related "karyogram patterns" are also identified, and mechanisms of chromosome rearrangement that associate this patterns among them, and with the standard parrot karyotype pattern are proposed. These schemes on parrot chromosomal variation are discussed in relation to the general avian chromosome evolutionary theses proposed by cytogenetic and molecular genomic researchers.
