What this measures
Attention is a Flanker task: respond to a center arrow while ignoring surrounding arrows that may point the other way. It measures selective attention and interference control.
How it works
Five arrows appear. Respond only to the center arrow's direction using ←/→ or A/D. Twenty trials — some congruent, some incongruent.
How results are calculated
Your primary score is a 0–100 composite combining accuracy and the interference effect (higher is better), estimated against population norms.
Accuracy & limitations
Display and keyboard latency affect RT. This is a research-grounded task (Evidence B), not a clinical evaluation.
