Attentional Network Test
System Requirements
Minimum: 800×600
Recommended: 1024×768
Description
The PEBL Attentional Network Test (PANT) measures the efficiency of three attention networks: alerting, orienting, and executive control. Participants identify the direction of a central arrow while ignoring flanking arrows, with various cuing conditions to assess different attention components.
