MATCH → RESPOND

Know this before you start

Your task

Respond only when the two symbols are identical. A second press for the same matching display is an error.

Keep in mind

A fast response to the wrong cue is still an error. Anticipating the next display can create false alarms.

Same shape → press EQUAL or Space
Technique & worked examples

Start with deliberate responses. Keep your gaze on both symbols, not the moving sliders. Compare valid response times alongside false responses and missed matching displays.

Session format & results

Guided or timed practice with configurable session duration and pace.

Review the debrief before repeating. Compare attempts using the same device and settings. Local results are practice measurements, not official scores or predictions of selection.

Controls, fullscreen & privacy

Use on-screen controls or the keyboard shortcuts shown in the exercise. Full screen is available after starting and expands only the exercise; devices without browser fullscreen use focus mode. Finishing or leaving returns you to the site.

No account or score upload. Session history is optional and stays on your device. Interview notes and individual personality responses are not saved in that history.

Sources & independence

The task concept is informed by public preparation instructions, not verified specifications for current selection tests.
