Fravashi International Academy, India
In today’s world, where education is often seen as a cornerstone for cognitive development, there exists a substantial disparity in the assessment of cognitive abilities across different populations. Globally, approximately 800 million individuals are either illiterate or have had minimal education, and this demographic often goes overlooked in neuropsychological research due to the inherent bias of existing cognitive assessment tools towards literate and educated individuals. This gap presents a significant challenge in the accurate evaluation and understanding of their cognitive abilities, which are shaped by a lifetime of unique experiences and learning processes. To address this challenge, we propose a novel solution: a MIDI drum system designed to evaluate cognitive performance through the medium of music, a universal language that transcends the barriers of literacy and formal education.
