10 validated tests across 5 cognitive domains. Built on jsPsych 8. Free for academic researchers. No hardware, no downloads, no $30,000 license.
Why Researchers Choose ConductCognition
Everything you need for cognitive assessment research, without the legacy platform baggage.
No Hardware
Run assessments from any browser. No iPads to ship, no software to install, no IT department needed.
Millisecond Precision
jsPsych 8 engine delivers research-grade timing accuracy. The gold standard for browser-based experiments.
Remote or In-Lab
Share a link for remote testing, or use supervised mode in-lab. Participants test from wherever they are.
Automated Scoring
Server-side algorithms compute standard measures automatically. Mean RT, d-prime, interference scores, and more.
Data Export
CSV download and API access. Trial-level data for every response. Compatible with R, SPSS, Python, and more.
Free Academic Tier
50 participants per study, full test battery, automated scoring, CSV export. No credit card required.
5 Cognitive Domains, 10 Validated Tests
Comprehensive coverage of the cognitive functions that matter most in research and clinical assessment.
How quickly the brain can process information and execute simple motor responses.
The ability to selectively focus on relevant information while filtering distractors.
The capacity to hold and manipulate information in mind over short periods.
Higher-order cognitive processes including inhibition, cognitive flexibility, and task switching.
The ability to encode, store, and retrieve information about specific experiences.
Complete Test Battery
All tests use public-domain paradigms with automated server-side scoring. No licensing fees.
Simple Reaction Time
Processing SpeedMeasures basic processing speed by asking participants to respond as quickly as possible when a stimulus appears on screen.
Choice Reaction Time
AttentionMeasures attention and decision speed by requiring participants to select the correct response based on which stimulus appears.
Go/No-Go Task
Executive FunctionMeasures response inhibition by requiring participants to respond to 'go' stimuli and withhold responses to 'no-go' stimuli.
Eriksen Flanker Task
AttentionMeasures selective attention and cognitive control by requiring participants to identify the direction of a central arrow while ignoring flanking arrows.
Stroop Color-Word Test
Executive FunctionMeasures cognitive inhibition by asking participants to identify the ink color of color words, creating interference between reading and color naming.
1-Back Task
Working MemoryMeasures working memory by requiring participants to indicate whether the current stimulus matches the one presented N items ago.
2-Back Task
Working MemoryMeasures working memory by requiring participants to indicate whether the current stimulus matches the one presented N items ago.
Digit Span Test
Working MemoryMeasures verbal working memory capacity by asking participants to recall sequences of digits in forward and backward order.
Trail Making Test A
Processing SpeedMeasures processing speed and visual scanning by asking participants to connect numbered circles in ascending order as quickly as possible.
Trail Making Test B
Executive FunctionMeasures executive function and cognitive flexibility by asking participants to alternate between numbers and letters (1-A-2-B-3-C...).
Paired Associate Learning
Episodic MemoryMeasures visuospatial episodic memory by asking participants to learn and recall the locations of patterns hidden in boxes on a grid.
