A 25-year-old woman with documented generalized seizures evoked by playing checkers was given a battery of psychological tests as well as a series of cognitive and non-game-related tasks during a session of intensive EEG-video monitoring. Generalized epileptiform discharges during each task, as well as during intervals of checkers playing, were quantified to determine possible triggering factors. Previous reports have discussed the roles of attention, concentration, stress, thinking, and spatial processing in similar cases. Our analysis showed significant activation of the EEG only with tasks involving strategic thinking, i.e., considering a sequence of moves based on evaluating the consequences of previous moves.
一名25岁女性，有记录显示玩跳棋会引发全身性癫痫发作，在一次强化脑电图-视频监测期间，她接受了一系列心理测试以及一系列认知和与游戏无关的任务。对每项任务期间以及玩跳棋的间隙出现的全身性癫痫样放电进行量化，以确定可能的触发因素。之前的报告讨论了注意力、专注力、压力、思维和空间处理在类似病例中的作用。我们的分析表明，仅在涉及策略性思维的任务中，即基于评估先前走法的后果来考虑一系列走法时，脑电图才会有显著激活。
