How to choose
Choose a memory task by what you want to hold in mind. The digit span test is the classic: digits one at a time, entered back in order, one more after each success. The working memory test adds a second job, judging sums while you keep letters in mind, which makes it the hardest here. The short-term memory test asks for twelve words after a short distraction. The visual memory test uses lit cells in a grid, the sequence memory test a growing order of taps, and the verbal memory test a stream of words you mark as new or seen.
