This complete online tool for cognitive assessment of concentration consists of a series of tasks. These tasks are designed to quickly and accurately detect and evaluate various brain functions related to attention.
People exhibiting symptoms or who are at risk of suffering a disorder* associated with attention may respond to an initial series of questions—these questions evaluate mental, physical, and social well-being based on the age of the user. After the initial questionnaire, the test taker can begin a series of exercises and tasks - all presented in the form of simple computer games.
Well-being Questionnaire
A series of simple questions will be presented; the questions aim to understand the cognitive state and general well-being based on the specific age of the user.
Neuropsychological factors and cognitive profile
Following the questionnaire, the user continues with a series of tasks designed to evaluate the principle neuropsychological factors identified in the scientific literature for disorders* associated with concentration and attention, focusing especially on divided attention and focused attention, among others. Scales, tasks, and assessments are all adjusted based on the age of the participant.
Complete results report
Once the user completes the memory assessment, they will receive a detailed report with all of the results, where they will be able to find a personalized risk index for the likelihood of suffering an attention disorder (low-, medium-, or high-risk)*. They will also find a list of symptoms, warning signs, a cognitive profile, and an analysis of the results, as well as recommendations and guidelines. The results can offer valuable information and can help to identify strategies for support or decide which specialist can provide additional testing and study the case in more detail.
Psychometric Results
Psychometric Results
The Concentration Cognitive Assessment (CAB-AT) employs patented algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI) technology to analyze more than a thousand variables and notify the user of any risk of issues related to attention through a series of psychometric results.
Each of these neuropsychological tasks included in the Concentration Cognitive Assessment (CAB-AT) has been developed through the scientific method. This allows us to guarantee certain psychometric characteristics appropriate for an effective evaluation of cognitive functions and general cognitive state.
The cognitive profile found in the neuropsychological report is based on highly consistent and stable outcomes. By designing transversal studies, we have been able to obtain psychometric statistics with values of almost 0.9 in the Cronbach Alpha coefficient. The Test-Retest values reach nearly 1.0, demonstrating a high degree of reliability.

CogniFit's neuropsychological assessments are useful for:
Difficulties when concentrating and attending to a stimulus
Inattention problems can often be due to stress or stimulus overload. When this is the case, the symptoms are usually transient and mild in nature. People who have trouble paying attention are generally easily distracted, do not pay attention to detail, and are prone to making careless mistakes when they have to work on a tedious or difficult project, such as schoolwork, work, or other activities.
Inability to listen or follow a conversation
This evaluation can be beneficial in the case of children or adults with attention problems. These people may have difficulties in processing or concentrating on the stimuli they receive. It often feels like they are not listening when you talk to them. They have trouble focusing on what someone else is saying and have a hard time following the rules given or directions for completing a task or project.
Forgetfulness or propensity to lose things
This neuropsychological battery can be especially beneficial for those who are forgetful or who often misplace things necessary for their activities or tasks (toys, school or work utensils, tools, etc.), and for people who are easily distracted and forgetful.
Low motivation when performing a task
For people who display a lack of motivation, it is crucial to find the reason. People who suffer from an attention deficit often have problems when organizing and completing tasks and activities. On many occasions, it has nothing to do with the person being lazy or not understanding the instructions. It is merely that their brain has a harder time repressing external stimuli and attending to a single action. For this reason, it is essential to understand the origin of this seeming disinterest thoroughly.
Determine if changes in concentration are within the normal range or may be due to a cognitive disorder*
These tests and mental assessments can help us to understand if the symptoms or complaints that the person exhibits are typical for their age.

Description of the diagnostic criteria questionnaire
Description of the diagnostic criteria questionnaire
Lack of concentration is becoming increasingly common today. Many times, it may be due to something temporary, but other times, it is due to some more severe disorder*. Because of this, any notable change in this cognitive area should be analyzed through a series of assessments. These assessments can offer clues about the presence of a disorder* related to attention. This is why the first step of the Concentration Cognitive Assessment (CAB-AT) from CogniFit consists of a questionnaire about the user's physical, mental and social well-being, based on the age of the user.
The questions found in the questionnaire are similar to those found in a typical interview; however, they have been simplified, so they are easily understandable for just about anyone taking the assessment.
The questionnaire consists of a series of easy to answer questions that can be completed by the instructor or professional giving the assessment. The questionnaire gathers information covering the following areas: physical well-being (being in an appropriate physical condition), psychological well-being (having an acceptable state of cognitive, emotional, and memory processes), and social well-being (maintaining healthy, rewarding relationships with the people around us). The questions representing each area are adapted to the day to day experiences of children and adolescents of this age range.

Neuropsychological aspects to be evaluated: Areas and cognitive capacities
Problems with attention can cause serious problems in our daily activities. An analysis of the state of the different cognitive abilities related to attention helps us to understand the importance of the various symptoms an individual is exhibiting.
Given the importance of attention in our daily lives, the Concentration Cognitive Assessment (CAB-AT) from CogniFit pays close attention to the measurement of the following abilities related to attention:
Attention
Ability to filter distractions and focus on relevant information.Excellent

Divided attention is the ability to pay attention to more than one stimulus or activity at the same time. Divided attention can be altered in many disorders. For people who have difficulty with divided attention, any interference could cause them to perform poorly in activities that are being carried out simultaneously, and in this way, make it impossible to carry out two actions at the same time.

Focused attention is the ability to focus our attention on a particular stimulus, regardless of the duration. Often, people with poor concentration find it difficult to focus their attention on relevant and appropriate stimuli or events for the given situation. This can, for example, lead to the loss of important information during a class.

Inhibition is the ability to inhibit or control impulsive (or automatic) responses, and to generate responses guided by attention and reasoning. A deficit in inhibitory control can lead to impulsive and repetitive behaviors. This can lead the person to carry out activities that are inappropriate for the context in which they find themselves.

Our Digital Cognitive Assessments
CogniFit digital tests are designed to measure a specific areas of cognition and are grouped together to form customized batteries based on the unique requirements of the study design and population. Learn more about our different tests and how they can support the unique needs of your study by exploring the details and demos below.
The Speed Test REST-HECOOR exercise was inspired by the classic test of Fingertip tapping from the assessment battery NEPSY (Korkman et al., 1998). The test-taker is required to keep on clicking for 10 seconds and as rapidly as possible with the mouse, or finger if using a touch-screen device, in a defined area on the screen. Data is collected as the number of clicks during the allocated time, number of clicks inside the defined area and number of clicks outside it.
The Resolution Test REST-SPER was inspired by the classic paradigms Go/No Go Task (Gordon & Caramazza, 1982), Continuous Performance Test (Conners, 1989; Epstein et al., 2001), and the Psychomotor Vigilance Task (Dinges & Powell, 1985). The test-taker is required to rapidly press on circles which appear on the screen and to ignore hexagons should they also appear. Embedded in the task are 16 circles-only items and 8 circles-and-hexagons items. For each item data is collected on response time, response accuracy and cursor distance from target center.
The Processing Test REST-INH was inspired by the classic Stroop test (Stroop, 1935). The test-taker is required to press on the larger of two circles, regardless of the number inscribed in each circle, while ignoring the text that could appear on the top-middle part of the screen. They are then required to press on the higher number regardless of the size of the circle in which the number is inscribed.
The Equivalencies Test INH-REST was based on the classic Stroop test (Stroop, 1935). The test-taker is asked to press on the spacebar (go action) only if the color names on the screen are printed in the matching color and to refrain from pressing (no-go) if the color of the letters does not match the printed color name.
The Simultaneity Test DIAT-SHIF stems from the classic Stroop test (Stroop, 1935), the Vienna Test System (Whiteside, 2002), and the Test of Variables of Attention (Greenberg et al., 1996). The test-taker is required to accurately follow a ball moving and turning in all directions on the screen while, at the same time, performing a variant of the Stroop test.
