What Is a mobile cognitive assessment?
A cognitive assessment measures thinking abilities such as memory, attention, processing speed, and problem-solving. Mobile cognitive assessments bring these tasks to smartphones, allowing researchers to collect repeated measurements in participants’ everyday lives.
Why Build Your Intervention with Pathverse?
athverse brings cognitive tasks, surveys, and wearable data together in one research platform. Researchers can explore how cognitive performance changes over time and how it relates to sleep, physical activity, stress, and daily experiences. Tasks such as Symbol Search, Trail Making, Grid Memory, and Color Shape offer different ways to assess cognitive performance remotely.

Every test parameter is yours to set
Add a test as a card in any module, then adjust it to match your protocol. No code and no developer needed.

Number of trials
Short screeners or longer blocks.
Difficulty
Set the load for your population.
Test length
Fit tests into a brief EMA prompt.
Practice rounds
Warm-up trials before scoring begins.
Time limits
Per trial or for the whole test.
Instructions
Write them in your study's language.
Integrate cognitive assessment with EMA or JITAI
Cognitive tests are cards, like surveys and lessons. Add them to any module in an EMA, intervention or JITAI study.
Baseline and follow-up
Release the same battery at set study timepoints to measure change over time.
Inside your EMA study
Add a short test to any EMA or daily diary prompt, right after the survey questions, to see how cognition changes across the day alongside mood, stress or activity.
Inside your JITAI
Use test results as a tailoring variable, or send a test when a decision rule fires: after a module, a survey answer or a wearable reading.
Track Engagement and Collect Study Data
Report results
Responses, reaction times and completion status for each trial.
Compliance at a glance
See which prompts each participant completed or missed, so you can follow up
CSV export
Data download as CSV files for R, SPSS, Python or Excel.
