Visual Memory

The Visual Memory Test assesses your visuospatial working memory and pattern recognition abilities. This test measures how well you can encode, maintain, and recall visual information about spatial locations and patterns.

The test progressively increases in difficulty by expanding the grid size and adding more target squares to remember. You have three lives, losing one each time you click on a square that wasn't highlighted. The challenge tests both your memory capacity and your ability to resist interference from similar visual stimuli.

Visuospatial memory is crucial for navigation, reading maps, remembering faces and locations, and many professional tasks requiring spatial awareness. This type of memory is processed differently from verbal memory and can be improved through targeted practice.

Pattern Recognition: Look for geometric patterns, symmetries, or clusters in the highlighted squares. Patterns are easier to remember than random arrangements.

Spatial Anchoring: Use the grid's structure as reference points. Remember positions relative to corners, edges, or the center rather than trying to memorize absolute locations.

Systematic Scanning: During recall, use a consistent strategy like scanning row by row or column by column. This prevents you from missing squares or clicking the same area twice.

Visualization: Try to maintain a mental image of the pattern during the recall phase. Some people find it helpful to trace the pattern with their eyes or finger before clicking.
