{"pk":29945,"title":"Enhancing Cognitive Assessment through Multimodal Sensing:A Case Study Using the Block Design Test","subtitle":null,"abstract":"Many cognitive assessments are limited by their reliance onrelatively sparse measures of performance, like per-item ac-curacy or reaction time. Capturing more detailed behavioralmeasurements from cognitive assessments will enhance theirutility in many settings, from individual clinical evaluationsto large-scale research studies. We demonstrate the feasibilityof combining scene and gaze cameras with supervised learn-ing algorithms to automatically measure key behaviors on theblock design test, a widely used test of visuospatial cognitiveability. We also discuss how this block-design measurementsystem could enhance the assessment of many critical cogni-tive and meta-cognitive functions such as attention, planning,progress monitoring, and strategy selection.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Poster Session 3","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/8bd948mg","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Seunghwan","middle_name":"","last_name":"Cha","name_suffix":"","institution":"Vanderbilt University","department":""},{"first_name":"James","middle_name":"","last_name":"Ainooson","name_suffix":"","institution":"Vanderbilt University","department":""},{"first_name":"Eunji","middle_name":"","last_name":"Chong","name_suffix":"","institution":"Georgia Tech","department":""},{"first_name":"Isabelle","middle_name":"","last_name":"Soulieres","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Quebec at Montreal","department":""},{"first_name":"James","middle_name":"M.","last_name":"Rehg","name_suffix":"","institution":"Georgia Tech","department":""},{"first_name":"Maithilee","middle_name":"","last_name":"Kunda","name_suffix":"","institution":"Vanderbilt University","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2020-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/29945/galley/19799/download/"}]}
