In this presentation Leslie Sherlin, PhD, explains the Versus NeuroPerformance Assessment. You'll learn the purpose of the NPA, how it was developed & validated, which constructs are measured & how to interpret those constructs.
3. INTRODUCTION
• Versus is a mobile device that assesses and quantifies
underlying brain performance metrics
• Proprietary BrainBank data and training protocols
based on elite performers’ characteristics
• This webinar will focus solely on the
NeuroPerformance Assessment
– The purpose and goal of the NPA
– The construction and validation of the NPA
– The constructs measured in the NPA
– Interpretation of the NPA constructs
5. PURPOSE&GOAL
• NeuroPerformance Assessment was developed to
replace traditional QEEG reports for a lay audience
• Intended usage on content specific to performance
• Terminology and explanations understandable by a
non-service provider
• Constructs specifically applicable to performance
characteristics
• Guide intervention (behavioral or physiological)
• Measure changes in trait and/or state
7. BRAINBANK
• The BrainBank is comprised of elite performers
• Elite performers are World Class athletes, Olympians
(medalists), Professional athletes, Performing Artists,
Musicians, well established Entrepreneurs or
Executives of leading companies (e.g. Fortune 500)
• The data are used for modeling performance and for
comparative metrics
• Collected demographic information, EEG data
(baselines and standardized tasks and unique tasks)
8. CONSTRUCTS
• Focus Index
– Focus Capacity
– Focus Endurance
– Impulse Control
• Stress Index
– Stress Capacity
– Activation Baseline
– Stress Regulation
– Max Activation
12. APPLICATION
• Conversation starter about mental attributes
contribution to performance
• Specific information regarding the individual’s
brain contribution to his/her performances
• Transferable into training/preparation
• Transferable into competition
• Monitor the progress of interventions and/or
changes in routines’ impact on performance
13. • Are we measuring “state” or “trait”? …yes!
