ABSTRACT
The Ubiquitous Cognitive Assessment Tool (UbiCAT) is a wearable technology designed for 'in-the-wild' cognitive assessment. UbiCAT includes three smartwatch-based applications adapted from the Stroop color-word, n-back, and two-choice reaction time tests, respectively. UbiCAT aims to measure selective attention and processing speed, working memory, and inhibition control. UbiCAT can be used for real-life cognitive assessment and for experiments on human cognitive performance. Within the field of ubiquitous computing, it contributes to the cognition-aware systems.

Attention to Attention
Organizational theory and research has increased attention to the determinants and consequences of attention in organizations. Attention is not, however, a unitary concept but is used differently in various metatheories: the behavioral theory of the ...
Neurological divide: an fMRI study of prose and code writing
ICSE '20: Proceedings of the ACM/IEEE 42nd International Conference on Software EngineeringSoftware engineering involves writing new code or editing existing code. Recent efforts have investigated the neural processes associated with reading and comprehending code --- however, we lack a thorough understanding of the human cognitive processes ...
