Abstract

This literature research paper examines the activation of Arousal and studies its neurological processes in order to study protocols, in a controlled space, that can elicit emotional states that act on the subject's arousal to lead him to the best attentional performance. The control of arousal through emotion should take place by modulating sensory stimuli, inside the multisensory room, realized in the Heracle Educational Neuroscience Laboratory, of the University Niccolò Cusano of Rome. The multisensory room offers a selection of primary stimuli in an attractive environment designed to develop cognitive skills through perception. Multisensory stimulation is, therefore, an approach aimed at stimulating the five senses in a controlled manner. Multisensory stimulation allows to reorganize the relationship with the external world and improves its comprehensibility and usability. Repeated and constant stimulation can exercise implicit learning (habit to a specific stimulus). The design hypothesis of the interventions is to modulate the stimuli according to the user's input arousal. to obtain the best attentional state.
