dc.description.abstract | Sustained attention is an often studied cognitive domain. It is one of the basic cognition functions in humans and necessary for many skills in the development of a child. In the past, research in sustained attention has been done with healthy children and children with a specific chronic disease. In this study, children with all kinds of chronic diseases or conditions are compared with healthy children using a digitalised version of the Bourdon-Vos test. Based on this test, it has been found that children with a chronic disease or condition perform less on the test and have a decline in detection rate over time compared to healthy peers. However, no differences in speed have been found between the two groups. | |
