Understand what you are testing
Brain abilities
A score starts a question. Explore the ability behind it: how researchers measure it, what age comparisons can tell you, what affects performance, and where practice helps.
Each guide connects the research to Helibrain’s own tests, games and practical tools. Our player results are not presented here as representative population norms.
Working memory
Hold information in mind and use it: compare spans, n-back and visual tasks, with age data and evidence on practice and everyday performance.
02Attention
Staying ready and selecting what matters are different skills. Explore vigilance, Stroop and go/no-go tasks, age findings and interruptions.
03Processing speed
How efficiently you complete simple mental operations: compare symbol coding, visual search and timed skills without confusing them with reaction time.
04Reaction time
From signal to action: understand simple and choice reaction time, age tables, device delay, sleep loss and repeatable comparisons.
05Reasoning and fluid intelligence
Spot rules and solve unfamiliar problems. Compare matrix reasoning with IQ batteries, age findings, practice effects and transfer limits.
06Verbal memory and language
Remembering words, knowing words and understanding text are different. Explore recognition, vocabulary and reading with careful age comparisons.
07Visuospatial ability
Visualize shapes, remember layouts and navigate. Compare rotation, spatial memory and imagery without treating them as one skill.
08Creativity
Generate possibilities and judge useful ideas. Compare word association, remote associates and creative products, with honest age and training evidence.
09Executive function
Inhibit a response, switch a rule and plan ahead. Explore the different control tasks, age references and limits of interpreting a short game.
10Long-term memory
Learning, retaining and retrieving information over time. Explore episodic, semantic and skill memory, age-adjusted comparisons and study methods.
11Decision-making and risk
Learn about choices under uncertainty, hidden payoffs and strategic thinking. Compare risk games without inventing a single decision-quality score.
12Perception: hearing, colour and time
Explore hearing, colour and timing with age context and device limits. Sensory discrimination and interval estimates need different interpretations.
