Kino kye kigezo kye kimu ekiri mu app ya Helibrain. Omuko gutandika essaawa ng'ulagira bulawuzi yo okulaga ekitundu ekiragala, era ne gugikomya ng'okunyiga kwo kutuuse. N'olwekyo obudde bwo buzingiramu obulwawo bwa screen yo n'obwa mouse, keyboard oba screen etatibira, omuko gwa yintaneeti gwe gutasobola kupima.

Biki ebikosa obudde bwo obw'okuddamu?

  • Ekyuma kyo. Mu kukebera kwa laboratory, emiko gya yintaneeti gyongerako 58 okutuuka 133 ms ku buli kuddamu, okusinziira ku kyuma ne bulawuzi [3]. Ne bwe bakozesa button ey'omutindo gwa laboratory, bulawuzi zaayongerako 8 okutuuka 67 ms [7]. Ku screen etatibira, engalo yo nayo erina okutambula okutuuka ku giraasi, era kino kyongerako nga 95 ms mu kunoonyereza kumu [6].
  • Tulo. Oluvannyuma lw'ekiro nga towebase, oba ekiro ebiwerako eby'okwebaka akaseera katono, okuddamu kuyitiriza obulwawo era okuggwaamu okussaayo omwoyo okumala ebbanga kuba kwa bulijjo [1]. Ebipimo by'okuggwaamu okussaayo omwoyo n'obwangu bibikwata bulungi [8].
  • Ekiseera ky'olunaku. Okussaayo omwoyo kugoberera enkyukakyuka za buli lunaku. Omuntu eyeebaka okuva ku ssaawa 11 ez'ekiro okutuuka ku 7 ez'oku makya addamu empola nnyo ekiro ne mu makya amangu, ate n'asinga obulungi olweggulo n'ekiro nga tekinnaziba nnyo [9].
  • Kafeini. Okwekenneenya okumu okunene kwazuula nti nga 40 okutuuka 300 mg za kafeini byongera okuba maso, okussaayo omwoyo n'obwangu bw'okuddamu [10].
  • Omwenge. Mu kugezesa ng'abantu 16 abavubuka abasajja baafuna omwenge oba ekifaananyi kyagwo, omwenge ogwayisa omwenge mu musaayi ku nga 0.07% gwalwisa okuddamu okwangu nga 43 ms ku mutendera gwagwo ogw'oku ntikko [11].
  • Emyaka. Enjawulo wakati w'ebibinja ebito n'ebikadde mu kifaananyi 1 eri nga 21 ms. Okunoonyereza kwalaga nti obudde obwongerwako buva ku kutandika okutambula, so si kulaba kiraga [2].
  • Okwegezaamu. Okwegezaamu kukyusa katono nnyo obudde obw'okuddamu ku kintu kimu. Mu bantu abakulu 48 abaakeberwa omulundi gumu buli wiiki okumala wiiki ssatu, wakati gw'obudde bwakyuka wansi wa 3 ms [12]. Mu kunoonyereza 36, abantu baadduka katono mu kugezesa okw'okubiri olwo obwangu ne butakyuka nnyo [13].
  • Emizannyo gya vidiyo egy'ebikolwa eby'amangu. Abazannyi ab'emizannyo gino buli kiseera baaddamu nga baweddeko 11% ku batagizannya, nga obutuufu bwe bumu, okusinga mu mirimu egy'okulondawo [14]. Okunoonyereza okusinga kwageraageranya abantu abaali bamaze dda okugizannya, kale emizannyo gino tegirina kuba nga ye gyaviirako obwangu obwo.
Ekifaananyi ky'ensengeka y'obuwanvu bw'obudde obwongerwako mu milisekondi: screen ya laboratory ne mouse 18 ms; emyaka 18–24 bw'ogeraageranya ne 59–65, 21 ms; omwenge oguli ku nga 0.07% mu musaayi, 43 ms; bulawuzi n'akabokisi ka button aka laboratory, 8 okutuuka 67 ms; omuko gwa yintaneeti ku masimu ne kompyuta entono, 58 okutuuka 133 ms; screen etatibira bw'ogeraageranya n'akabokisi ka button aka laboratory, 95 ms.
Ekifaananyi 3. Ebintu ebyongera milisekondi ku budde bw'okuddamu, okusinziira ku bipimo ebyafulumizibwa. Data: Woods 2015 [2]; Pérez-Mañá 2022 [11]; Bridges 2020 [7]; Pronk 2020 [3]; Grandner 2018 [6].

Mu kunoonyereza kwa laboratory okwali ku bantu abakulu 1,469, wakati gw'obudde obw'okuddamu ku kintu kimu gweyongera mpola n'emyaka: 218 ms ku myaka 18–24, 228 ms ku myaka 39–45 ne 239 ms ku myaka 59–65, nga kitundu kya milisekondi buli mwaka [2]. Mu kunoonyereza mu UK okwali ku bantu abakulu 7,130, obudde bw'okuddamu ku kintu kimu bwakyuka katono okutuusa nga batuuse emyaka nga 50, ate obudde bw'okuddamu ng'olondawo bwalwawo mu bulamu bw'omuntu obw'okuze [5].

Lwaki obudde bwange obw'okuddamu bukoma okuba mpola ku ssimu?

Ekigezo ky'obudde bw'okuddamu ku ssimu kyongerako obulwawo bubiri. Engalo yo erina okutambula okutuuka ku giraasi, era essimu ne bulawuzi bitwala obudde okutegeera okukwatako. Abantu abakulu 44 be bamu bwe baakola ekigezo ky'okubeera obulindaala ku kabokisi ka button aka laboratory ne ku screen etatibira, wakati gwabwe gwali 284 ms ne 379 ms [6]. Geraageranya obubonero bw'essimu n'obw'essimu.

Nsobola okulongoosa obudde bwange obw'okuddamu?

Okwegezaamu kukyusa katono nnyo obudde bw'okuddamu ku kintu kimu: mu kunoonyereza okwamala wiiki ssatu, wakati gw'obudde bwakyuka wansi wa 3 ms [12]. Tulo, okuba maso n'ekyuma bye bikosa ennyo: obutaba na tulo bwalwisa okuddamu [1], ate kafeini entono ey'omugerageranyo eyongera ku bwangu bw'okuddamu [10].

Ekigezo ky'obudde bw'okuddamu ekya Helibrain kya bwereere ddala?

Yee. Ekigezo ky'obudde bw'okuddamu ekya Helibrain n'ebivudde mu kigezo byo byonna bya bwereere: tewetaagisa kwewandiisa, email oba kusasula, era tewali kintu kikwisigazibwako nga lipoota enzijuvu. Helibrain efuna ssente okuva mu app yaayo, erina enteekateeka ey'obwereere n'ezisasulwa; tewetaaga app okukola ekigezo oba okulaba ebivuddemu.

Ekigezo ky'obudde bw'okuddamu kye kimu n'ekigezo ky'enneeyisa ey'omubiri ey'ekitalo?

How this test works

This test measures how fast you react to a signal you are waiting for. The circle stays grey for a random time, then turns green. Tap, click, or press Space or Enter as soon as you see green. After one practice round you play 10 timed rounds. Your score is the average time of your timed taps, in milliseconds. Taps that come too early are left out. Psychology labs have timed simple reactions like this since the 1860s.
