About Global Mind Tests
Global Mind Tests brings research-inspired cognitive tasks to your browser. Each test is based on a well-established experimental paradigm from cognitive science and adapted for short, practical self-tracking.
Instead of long questionnaires or abstract scores, you interact directly with tasks that probe attention, reaction speed, working memory and cognitive control. The interface stays minimal on purpose, so performance reflects your decisions, not distractions or interpretation.
What these tests are based on
The platform builds on decades of research in experimental psychology and neuroscience. Classic laboratory paradigms are translated into browser-based tasks with controlled stimuli, consistent rules and repeatable measurement.
While individual tests differ in structure and difficulty, they share the same foundations: clearly defined cognitive demands, objective response criteria and metrics designed to capture performance over repeated sessions.
If you want to explore the scientific background, start with broad, reputable sources:
How the tests work
Each test focuses on a specific cognitive process and presents a controlled sequence of stimuli that requires fast, accurate decisions. The structure is intentionally simple so that results reflect cognitive performance, not learning complex rules.
Most tasks consist of multiple trials. Individual responses can vary, so results are derived from aggregated performance rather than single actions. This makes comparisons over time more meaningful and reduces random noise.
How scoring works
Results are designed to be easy to read and comparable across time. Each test uses a scoring system tailored to its cognitive demands, so performance can be interpreted consistently without technical details.
Percentiles show how your result compares to a broad reference distribution. A higher percentile means your performance is above the average level observed across a large, mixed population of users, while lower percentiles indicate results closer to or below the typical range.
To reduce random fluctuations, scores are based on aggregated performance rather than single responses. This makes trends over repeated sessions more informative than any one attempt.
Quality, transparency, and responsible use
Global Mind Tests is grounded in decades of research from cognitive science and experimental psychology. The tasks are inspired by well-established laboratory paradigms that have been widely studied and documented in scientific literature.
Each test is designed with consistency and repeatability in mind, so results can be meaningfully compared over time under similar conditions.
What we do not do: we do not diagnose medical or psychological conditions, we do not prescribe treatment, and we do not replace professional evaluation.
How to interpret results: treat single sessions as a snapshot. Look for trends across repeated sessions and compare results under similar conditions (same device, similar environment).

Privacy & ethics
All results are stored locally in your browser. No data is transmitted to external servers, and no one has access to your results except you on your own device.
Who is it for?
Students, gamers, professionals, or anyone curious about attention, speed and working memory. Use the tests to monitor your training, warm up your focus, or just learn how your mind responds under pressure.
FAQ – Frequently asked questions
How should I use these results responsibly?
Use these tests for self-tracking and learning, not for diagnosis.
Scores naturally change with sleep, stress, caffeine, practice and device differences.
For meaningful insight, compare trends across multiple sessions under similar conditions.
If you have health concerns, consult a qualified medical or psychological professional.
What is Global Mind Tests?
Global Mind Tests is a collection of short cognitive tasks designed for personal insight and education.
The platform focuses on core cognitive processes such as attention, reaction speed,
working memory and cognitive control, using research-inspired task designs.
Why was this site created?
The project was created as an independent educational tool to make cognitive testing
more accessible outside laboratory settings.
The goal is to help users explore their own performance and variability over time
without long questionnaires or complex equipment.
Are these real cognitive tests?
The tasks are inspired by well-established paradigms used in cognitive science and experimental psychology.
They are adapted for short, browser-based use, which makes them suitable for self-tracking and learning,
but not equivalent to full clinical or laboratory assessments.
How accurate are the results?
Results reflect your performance during a short session under specific conditions.
Natural variability is expected and influenced by factors such as focus, fatigue,
stress, caffeine and familiarity with the task.
Repeated measurements and averages provide more meaningful insight than single attempts.
How does scoring work?
Each test uses a scoring approach suited to what it measures,
so results remain easy to interpret without technical details.
Percentile estimates show how your performance compares to a broad reference range
rather than a fixed or clinical norm.
Do I need an account to use the site?
No account is required.
All tests work without registration,
and your results remain stored locally in your own browser.
Where is my data stored?
By default, results are saved only on your device using local browser storage.
No personal information is collected or transmitted.
Is this a medical or psychological diagnosis?
No.
These tests are intended for self-tracking and educational purposes only.
They do not replace professional medical or psychological evaluation.
Can I compare my results with others?
Some results include approximate percentile estimates based on aggregated reference data.
These comparisons are meant as general context,
not as rankings or definitive performance judgments.
Will practice improve my scores?
Practice effects are expected.
Improvements may reflect learning the task,
developing better strategies or increased consistency over time.
Does the site work on mobile devices?
Yes.
The site is responsive and works on phones and tablets,
although tasks that require precise timing or input
may feel more comfortable on larger screens.
