How strong is your memory?
A free 10-minute test of the four memory pillars. You play five short tasks, see your score straight away, and get the full report in your inbox.
- Focus & AttentionStaying on target when the obvious answer pulls you away.
- Working MemoryHolding information in mind while you rearrange it.
- Short-Term MemoryRecalling what you saw a moment ago, exactly.
- Long-Term MemoryBringing back what you learned after a delay.
Your report draws one ring for each pillar. The fuller the ring, the stronger that part of your memory.
What happens in the test
Each task is modelled on a method memory researchers use: the Stroop task, backward digit span, visual pattern recall and delayed recognition. Your level changes how long, how fast and how tricky each one is.
- Memory vaultStudy a set of picture and word pairs. You’ll be asked about them at the end.
- Colour clashName the ink colour of a word that spells a different colour. Speed counts.
- Reverse digitsWatch a string of numbers, then type it back in reverse order.
- Flash gridA pattern of squares lights up for a moment. Rebuild it from memory.
- Vault recallPick out the pictures you studied and match each one to its word.
This test gives an indicative picture of your memory skills for learning and self-improvement. It is not a medical or psychological diagnosis. If you have concerns about your memory, please speak to a doctor.
