Assessing Executive Function in Patients With Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Through a Game‐Based Assessment Task

Key Points

This research aims to assess executive function in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy using a game-based task.
Utilized a game-based assessment task (EFAT).
Evaluated executive function in both social and nonsocial scenarios.
Compared performance between temporal lobe epilepsy patients and normative data.
Detected executive deficits in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy.
Found deficits across both social and nonsocial conditions.
Indicated potential for clinical use in assessing executive function.

Abstract

EFAT detected executive deficits in TLE patients across social and nonsocial conditions and offered an objective, engaging complementary tool for EF assessment. These findings support its preliminary clinical applicability.
