AVE
Description
This study is a pioneering exploration into the intersection of education, psychology, neurolinguistics, and learning theories, particularly focusing on the enhancement of language acquisition processes. Our research delves into the intricate relationship between cognitive processes and neuronal activity, specifically how attention and retention are influenced by brainwave oscillations. Recognizing the challenges faced by language learners, we have employed non-invasive brain stimulation techniques—audio-visual entertainment (AVE) and cranio-electro stimulation (CES)—alongside multisensory-based instruction. Our aim was to facilitate the language learning process by optimizing these cognitive functions. The significance of our study lies in its potential to revolutionize educational practices and therapeutic interventions within the realms of psychology and neurolinguistics. By demonstrating the efficacy of AVE and CES in modifying attention and retention processes, we provide a novel perspective on learning theories and offer practical applications for enhancing cognitive performance.

Data Collection: • Subjects: Participants were taught a set of unfamiliar words in four sessions, with sessions including control, multisensory, CES, and AVE. • Stimuli Selection: The choice of five words was based on Stroop-based studies to meet the stimulus set size limitation. Instruments: • AVE Device: The David Delight Pro device provided photic and auditory stimulations with specific frequency settings • CES Device: Connected to the Delight Pro device, the CES ear clip stimulus cable delivered a pulsed electrical current Software: • SPSS and psytoolkit Reproducibility: • Detailed protocols and settings for the AVE and CES devices are provided, which would allow for replication of the entrainment sessions.
