Paradigm overview

Sustained Attention to Response measures vigilance and response inhibition using frequent go items and rare no-go targets. Scoring reports commission errors, omission errors, go RT, and RT variability.

Key scoring outputs

Commission Errors

count

Responses made to no-go target items.

Lower is better

Omission Errors

count

Missed responses on go items.

Lower is better

RT Variability

ms

Standard deviation of correct go response times.

Lower is typically more stable
