An OT "project" of mine. A friend has Parkinson's disease, and is getting the jitters. He was a senior manager in a major IT corporation (he is not a programmer, did some FORTRAN for his MSc, years ago - but he's smart enough). About a year ago wrote for himself a simple reaction time (mouse response to some cue appearing on screen) in MS Excel (VBA), but he would like to do some .NET programming, and also write something more appropriate for his condition.
I have seen a few things on CodeProject that might be adaptable, but most are too elaborate (games, which assume super-quick reaction time but also are too involved in terms of story line, graphics, etc). Over time, I would be grateful if anyone on the list can just post a URL that I can have a look at. I've got him working with VS2008 Express, but might need to use a more capable / more recent IDE. (Those of you who are aware of tests for behavioural neuroscience may know that this is a reasonably involved area of research and testing, but is also a very fertile area for internet money-raking, by individuals whose ethical behaviour is similar to those advertising p3nis enlargement!) Thanks - it would be good to get a few tips. _____ Ian Thomas Victoria Park, Western Australia
