What is Sustained Attention?
In this test, you will watch colored circles moving across the screen. There is a gray area in the middle. When a circle enters this area, it becomes invisible but continues moving in the same direction. Below the gray area, there are three buttons: Red, Black, and Yellow.
1. The Tracking Challenge
- Circles move at a consistent speed in a straight line toward and through the gray area.
- Once a circle enters the gray area, it becomes invisible but continues moving.
- You must mentally track its position and predict its movement.
