Genesis of Attention in the Process of Interaction Weak Visual Person – Work System in a Local Environment

Abstract

The way in which a person with visual weakness interacts with a device in a local environment provides useful information to study the processes that he requires in the mental construction of the object. The analysis of these processes can originate valuable information about those patterns that promote a sensory equivalence and thereby understand the origin of the attention in the process of interaction with a Work System (WS). A determinant factor is the correct spatial location of the hands of a Weak visual person (Wvp) in the WS because each device used by a Wvp implies a dishabituation to the system. Likewise, it has been found that the processes of construction of mental models differ in a Wvp and a Normal visual person (Nvp) by the use of equivalent systems (When a damage exist in the motor limbs, there is a spontaneous reorganization. They are replaced by other motor systems that they had not previously associated [1].) however, there is a correspondence of data in the mental models obtained and a variability in levels of attention.
