BrainPT, a Cognitive Mini-Game App for Short-Form Video Use in Young Adults: Neural and Behavioral Pilot Study

Background: Short-form video elicits a stimulus-driven, passive neural state, yet existing interventions target time of use alone and cannot show whether the mechanism of cognitive control has changed. Objective: This pilot study developed BrainPT, a mini-game-based cognitive intervention, and evaluated whether a single insertion alters the neural state during short-form viewing (Study 1) and whether repeated use improves behavioral self-regulation (Study 2). Methods: Study 1 used a within-subject design (n=9) in which electroencephalography (EEG) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNI
