Cognitive skills are the mental abilities your brain uses to think, learn, remember, and solve problems. They include working memory, processing speed, attention, cognitive flexibility, and reasoning. These skills underpin everything from reading to decision-making.

This test measures four key areas: working memory (holding and manipulating information), cognitive flexibility (switching between tasks), mental arithmetic (numerical processing speed), and sustained attention (maintaining focus over time).

Regular practice with varied mental challenges, physical exercise, adequate sleep, and a balanced diet all support cognitive function. Our companion Cognitive Skills Workbook provides targeted exercises for each skill area.
