Mobile
phones and smartphones
The most portable of portable devices, phones can be
used to run a wide range of performance tests. Phones are suitable
for studies of "everyday cognition" where a user carries
the phone around and carries out assessments at different times of
day.
Test applications are generally set up for a specific project, as
the configuration will depend on the research protocol. Applications
can be set up either on Android® smart phones or on standard mobile
phones. An evaluation application is available for a standard mobile
phone.

The
tests
A core set of 14 tasks can be run on either a tablet or a mobile
phone. Six additional tasks are available which require the larger
display available on the tablet.

An example of a test that can run on either platform
is the arrow flanker task (left). A row of five symbols is
displayed. The central one, the target, is always an arrow,
which can point either to the right or left. The other four symbols,
the flankers, can be either arrows pointing in the same direction as
the target (congruent); arrows pointing in the opposite direction
(incongruent); or squares (neutral). The task is harder, and
reaction times correspondingly longer, with incongruent flankers.
