HOW TO PLAY

Use the cue, then locate the real target.

  1. 01

    Keep your eyes near the center and wait for a left or right arrow cue.

  2. 02

    A target appears after a short interval. It may match the cue or appear opposite it.

  3. 03

    Press A or L—or tap the left or right zone—according to the target, not the cue.

VALID VS INVALID

How spatial cues change a reaction game

A valid cue points toward the upcoming target. An invalid cue points away, asking you to redirect focus before responding.

The standard test balances both cue types and both target sides so the comparison is not dominated by one direction.

Compare valid and invalid reaction time

The two averages include only correct responses. The difference is invalid average minus valid average.

This browser game is a focus challenge for entertainment and personal comparison, not a diagnostic assessment.

QUESTIONS

Posner cueing reaction test FAQ

Should I respond to the arrow?

No. The arrow is only a cue. Always respond to the side where the square target appears.

What makes a cue invalid?

An invalid cue points left before a right target, or points right before a left target.

How are standard rounds balanced?

The 24-round set contains six rounds each of valid-left, valid-right, invalid-left, and invalid-right, shuffled into a new order.

What ends an endless run?

A wrong side, an input before the target, or a timeout ends the run immediately.
