As we age our Reaction Time tends to slow down.
Scientists have established "norms" or estimates of average reaction
time based on age. Research supports the idea that reaction time may be
a valuable indicator of overall cognitive health.
Improving your
reaction time and test score
by challenging yourself with games and exercises can be a worthwhile
pursuit. Cognitive Labs' games have been cited in recent published
research on the brain but
also are fun. Box 3 contains a hint of what you will see in the
exercise, press the 'Go' button to continue.
Cognitive Labs tests and games are
completely free and available to all as a useful service. If you have additional questions
about your health or any possible medical conditions, please
contact a healthcare practitioner.
