Cognitive Assessments

Measure cognition on participants’ own phones

Add validated mobile tests to any Pathverse study, set every parameter yourself, and collect trial-level data without bringing participants into the lab.

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.

Mobile cognitive assessments available on Pathverse 

FNAME
The Face-Name Associative Memory Exam (FNAME) is a specialized neuropsychological tool designed to detect early, subtle episodic memory deficits associated with preclinical Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and amyloid-beta brain accumulation.

Associative Memory

Stroop
The Stroop test is a neuropsychological assessment that measures selective attention, cognitive flexibility, and processing speed by evaluating how the brain handles conflicting information.

Inhibitory

Control

Trail Making
The Trail Making Test is a short neuropsychological assessment that measures visual attention, processing speed, and executive functioning.

Attention & Task Switching

Symbol Search
The CORE - Symbol Search - CognitiveMetrics assessment and standard Wechsler intelligence tests (WAIS/WISC) use the Symbol Search subtest to measure cognitive processing speed. Test-takers scan rows of abstract shapes under a two-minute limit to decide if target symbols appear in a search group.

Processing

Speed

Memory Dot
A dot memory test evaluates spatial working memory and visual recall. You view a pattern of dots on a grid, the dots disappear, and you must recreate or point to their exact original locations.

Spatial Working Speed

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 Assessments 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 using StudyFlow.

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. Explore JITAI with App Builder.

Track Engagement and Collect Study Data

Report results

Responses, reaction times and completion status for each trial.
