Language: Simple English Help file: No Application status: release Download: Here RSTSelective attention task The Stroop effect is the delay in reaction time between congruent and incongruent stimuli. Another variant of the classic Stroop effect is the Reverse Stroop effect. It occurs during a pointing task. In a reverse Stroop task, individuals are shown a page with a black square with an incongruent colored word in the middle - for instance, the word "red" written in the color green - with four smaller colored squares in the corners. One square would be colored green, one square would be red, and the two remaining squares would be other colors. Studies show that if the individual is asked to point to the color square of the written color they would present a delay. Thus, incongruently-colored words significantly interfere with pointing to the appropriate square. It is possible to customize the language interface (eg enter color names in your own language). A form for changing application settings is included. Language: Simple English Help file: No Application status: release Download: Here MSTSelective attention task The Stroop effect is the delay in reaction time between congruent and incongruent stimuli. The Selective Attention Theory suggests that color recognition, as opposed to reading a word, requires more attention. The brain needs to use more attention to recognize a color than to encode a word, so it takes a little longer. Anterior cingulate gyrus, had found increased activated when viewing conflicting stimulus. Source: Stroop effect. Although this application was initially inspired by the classic Stroop task, you need to be aware of the fact that the original Stroop experiment cannot be replicated on a computer. Although this application is manifestly similar to the Stroop task, it is clear that there are large and significant differences between this application and the classic Stroop task (eg here the respondent's answer is motor, not verbal, time is measured differently,..). It is possible to customize the language interface (eg enter color names in your own language). A form for changing application settings is included. Language: Simple English Help file: No Application status: release Download: Here WM11Find target - movement M-Task Motion detection plays a very important role in the continuous evolutionary process for species survival. In the past, it was much less researched, compared to the P-pathway, which could be explored in the classical "paper-pencil" way. The M-pathway was not significantly tested until the 20th century when the development of technology finally made it possible to test it. The revolutionary discovery of integrated circuits, and consequently microprocessors, and the development of (cheap) computers, finally enabled a more significant examination of this phenomenon. In real research, it is usually not possible to examine the M-pathway and the P-pathway separately, because they most often act in interaction, and occur in parallel with many other cognitive processes. Despite these problems, this application tries to make a small contribution to further exploration of this interesting and often ignored area. The participant should detect movements and/or changes in the position of target stimuli within different contexts of non-target stimuli. This application starts easily and directly from a web browser. A form for changing application settings is included.

In the first paradigm, the participant should distinguish the target from the non-target stimuli only by the geometric shape of the stimuli while ignoring the color of the stimuli. In the second paradigm, the participant should distinguish the target from the non-target stimuli only by color while ignoring the geometric shape of the stimuli. In the third paradigm, the participant should distinguish the target from the non-target stimuli at the same time by color and geometric shape.

Language: Simple English Help file: No Application status: release Download: Here WM8Context-Dependent Classification Task Working Memory Context-Dependent Classification Task based on similarities and differences between stimuli. The stimulus generator displays stimuli that differ in a significant number of dimensions, ie attributes (geometric shape, spatial position, number, fill color, size, rotation, background border color, direction of movement, ...). The task is to try to find a stimulus that is significantly different from the others within the given context. The stimuli can be dynamic (vary as a function of time), static (fixed), or a combination of these 2 types. It is possible to vary the rate of change of dynamic stimuli.

In a 2D mental rotation test, the subject is asked to compare two or more 2D objects (or images) and state if they are the same image or if they are mirror images or if they are completely different images. Commonly, the test will have pairs of images each rotated a specific amount of degrees (e.g. 20°, 75°, 140° or 180°). Some pairs will be the same image rotated, some will be different, and some will be mirrored. Within this program, you can choose from four basic types of experiment (test, task). With these experiments we examine how quickly and accurately a person differs same (rotated) from different (mirror or completely different) images.

This phenomenon has long been used in computer science (e.g. processing and image coding). In recognition of the object in very poor visibility definitely helps a lot previously acquired knowledge and environmental context (for example, driving a car at twilight in Bangladesh we do not expect a polar bear on the road). The empirical fact is that our brain is certainly not required to have 100% of visual information for successful object recognition. The key question is: how little? This application to some extent gives the answer to this question. You'd be surprised how much this number is small. Database support included. Help file and documentation included. Language: Croatian Help file: Yes (only Croatian) Last Version: 3.0 Application status: release Download: Here WM1Digit span task (visual, auditory and visual-auditory) - classic forward and backward task Working Memory Computer Test for processing serial (verbal) information in classic forward and backward paradygm in visual and auditory dimension. Auditory tasks are available only in Croatian. You can define your own stimulus. Database support included. In psychology and neuroscience, memory span is the longest list of items that a person can repeat back in correct order immediately after presentation on 50% of all trials. Items may include words, numbers, or letters. Memory span is a common measure of short-term memory. The task is known as digit span when numbers are used. Digit-span task is used to measure working memory's number storage capacity. Participants are presented with a series of digits (e.g., '7, 9, 0') and must immediately repeat them back. If they do this successfully, they are given a longer list (e.g., '6, 2, 4, 9'). The length of the longest list a person can remember is that person's digit span. While the participant is asked to enter the digits in the given order in the forward digit-span task, in the backward digit-span task the participant needs to reverse the order of the numbers. Backward memory span is a more challenging variation which involves recalling items in reverse order. In a backward digit span task, the procedure is largely the same, except that subjects being tested are asked to recall the digits in backward order (e.g., if presented with the following string of numbers "3 1 4 1 5," the subject would be asked to recall the digits in reverse order; in the case, the correct response would be "5 1 4 1 3"). Language: Simple English Help file: Yes (only Croatian language) Last Version: 2.1 Application status: release Download: Here 46Oculomotor Delayed Response task This is the first computer program created for Behaviour Brain Research project (was created in 1999 year). It is a sort of like Danny DeVito: it may not be pretty, but it is still functional. In classic Oculomotor Delayed Response task, subjects fixate on a central stimulus while a target will appear unpredictably in the peripheral space. Subjects must memorize the location of the target, and after a varied delay period, the fixation cue disappears. The disappearance of the fixation point cues the participant to make an eye movement to the location the target appeared. The response is voluntary and utilizes representation of the object in working memory. Source: here 46 is Oculomotor Delayed Response task with or without an additional/second task (memorizing digits or counting geometric figures). Calculates detailed descriptive and inferential statistics (t-test, ANOVA) relative to the quadrants of the screen.
