More than a game,
a journey into how your child’s mind responds
Mahiyab combines cognitive-science concepts with playful interaction to help families observe attention, activity, and response-control patterns in children aged 5 to 12—without turning the experience into a clinical exam.
Why Mahiyab?
A calm, playful first step toward clearer observations and better conversations
Is focusing difficult for your child?
You may be unsure whether restlessness is typical or deserves closer attention.
Are observations inconsistent?
Behavior can look different at home, at school, and during an assessment.
Worried about labels?
Begin with curiosity, careful observation, and language that protects the child’s dignity.
Are you a teacher or caregiver?
Structured observations can make conversations with families more specific and constructive.
What makes Mahiyab different
A child-friendly experience informed by attention and response-control research
Three connected behavior patterns
Attention, activity, and impulsive responding observed together
Informed by CPT literature
Built around established concepts such as sustained attention and response inhibition
A playful environment
An inviting underwater adventure instead of a dry testing room
Designed for ages 5–12
Visual language and interactions shaped around the target age group
Mobile motion signals
Accelerometer and gyroscope data can complement response observations
A structured summary
A clearer starting point for conversations with qualified professionals
Mahiyab’s visual world
An underwater adventure designed around children
Mahiyab’s characters and environment use a warm, colorful visual language that feels playful rather than clinical.
Joy in the journey
Energy and delight throughout the adventure.
A colorful world
Friendly sea life makes the setting approachable.
Support without pressure
A warm setting built around the child’s comfort.
What happens in the Mahiyab journey?
An underwater adventure invites children to demonstrate several cognitive skills naturally
1
Attention Bay

2
Restlessness Island

3
Rush Cave
غار عجلهWait for the red fish—responding too soon changes the pattern.
Patterns Mahiyab explores
Five connected aspects of cognition and behavior are observed during the experience
Sustained attention
How consistently a child attends to target stimuli
Sustained AttentionDistractibility
How surrounding stimuli influence task focus
Selective AttentionMotor activity
Movement patterns observed through device sensors
Motor ActivityResponse inhibition
The ability to wait and avoid a premature response
Response InhibitionProcessing speed
Reaction time and decision speed across game events
Processing SpeedScientific transparency
Design foundations and responsible boundaries
Trust begins by separating what is established, what informs the design, and what still requires direct validation.
Inspired by continuous performance tasks
Sustained-attention and response-inhibition logic comes from CPT literature; Mahiyab is not the IVA-2 test.
Performance and movement together
Reaction time, response patterns, and motion data can contribute to an initial observation.
The product needs independent validation
Sensitivity, specificity, norms, and interpretation limits must be established for Mahiyab itself.
Screening support, not diagnosis
A game result may support a conversation; it cannot replace a multi-source clinical assessment.
The essential point:No single score can establish whether a child does or does not have ADHD.
