Application settings:
Use demo mode to training user for selected paradigm type.
Paradigm: Numbers-ascending Numbers-descending Letters-ascending Letters-descending Numbers-letters ascending Letters-numbers ascending The order of correct selection is: 1-2-3..
Number of items within the task: After completing the first item, the tasks end.
Number of dots within each item:
Shape type: Dots (circles) Squares
After the correct selection, the shape becomes: Invisible No number (letter) Show Trail After the correct selection, shape (dot) becomes invisible.
Raster: a fixed raster allows for greater spacing between dots. The size of the dots (and text) does not depend on the number of dots displayed. The disadvantage of a fixed raster is that if you use a small screen you will not see the typed text inside the dots. A variable raster allows you to display very large dots (and the text written in them), especially if you use a small number of dots. The size of the dots is inversely proportional to the number of dots used. A variable raster may be useful in a visually impaired population. The disadvantage of a variable grid is the smaller distance between the dots.
The raster is fixed or variable: Fixed Variable The size of the dots (and font) does not depend on the number of dots displayed, but only on the screen size.
Colors. Note: if you change the default colors, synchronize the colors. Some colors in demo mode are fixed.

Legend:
Point = 1 point is added for each completed item (task).
Errors = for each incorrect dot (shape) selection within an item. Clicks outside visible dots are ignored.
Time (s) = time in seconds. It starts from the start of the current item (NOT from the selection of the first target stimulus).
Your Trail = mouse path (trajectory) during each item. The path begins to be calculated after the first mouse click within each item. The path ends after the item is completed. If this number is higher, it means that the mouse path was longer and vice versa. Units: pixels.
Optimal Trail = optimal path (trajectory) that is achieved by ideal movement in the direction from the previous to the next target stimulus. It is very difficult to achieve the optimal path with a human hand. If you select "Show Trail" - you can see a demonstration of the optimal trajectory. Units: pixels.
Trail Redundancy = Your Trail / Optimal Trail. The best results are around 1. The higher this number, the greater the redundancy of the mouse path.
Time and Trail are calculated correctly only for completed items. The trail is calculated only if the screen size is not changed during the task.
Descriptive statistics: Redundancy = Trail Redundancy
Although a descriptive statistic has been calculated for the Time variable, note that this variable is probably not on an interval scale. Time measurement precision might get rounded and vary depending on browser settings. For all Non-Real-time operating systems, a conservative assumption of the ordinal scale of measurement applies.
