I always suck on the reaction time because I use one of those awful wireless mice.

The Major System would be useful for improving number memory, OP. It replaces numbers with words but takes a bit of an effort to learn.

>>9435388
Yeah, you should be able to press space or something instead of clicking.

>>9435339
The number memory test is the most skewed because a lot of people simply write the numbers down or take a picture with their phones so they can score higher on the number test and post it on /sci/. The visual test is also easy to cheat on by taking a picture of the first screen with your phone before it disappears.


You're actually pretty smart, just not smart enough to cheat.

silly test

>>9435672
Cheating is no fun, anon.

Post legit results.

>>9435683
okay okay

>>9435701
Pretty good desu.

Excluding reaction time, I wonder if verbal memory is the best and number memory is the worst for most people.

Download dual n back app, it's free game that will improve memory.

tfw no verbal memory

>>9436157
It's essentialy bullshit, you get better at the game but it's translation to other tasks is very small/null

>>9436162
but your visual memory is p great, well done

>>9436157
thx

Did horribly on the visual. Disappointed.

>>9435339
8 digits? faggot

how did you guys do so good on visual

i did alright on verbal

>>9436228
i don't understand how you people can only remember 8 digits

>>9436228
having hppd so seeing an after image for a good second

>reaction time is intelligence

>>9436244
Reaction time highly corrilated with iq, also neccissary to become skilled in many tasks. Just cause you didn‘t get taught it in high school doesn‘t mean it‘s not meaningfull brainlet

>>9436237

>>9436257
Cool, give some peer reviewed sources which support your statement in full or fuck off.

I need to get more sleep

I taste bait, but fuck it ill indulge you.

For verbal I find it helps to repeat new words in a strange and weird sentence in your head.

Or if you can a ridiculous long word like:

>dendrological

I would repeat to myself something like "dead end logical" in my head.

>>9435339
i can't comprehend anyone having a reaction time faster than about 250ms, is there something wrong with my brain?

>>9436268
Focus senpai

>>9436267
Will try, thanks

>>9436267
Tried and got 76, thank‘s bro

>>9436268
Try listening to higher tempo music.

Don't know if that counts as cheating but it helps me.

>>9436297
>eurobeat intensifies

>>9435339
Should have done better on the visual.

>>9436325
Do you have a technique for the numerical? 14 is seriously good.

Why is visual memory so hard?

>>9436331
Just memorize in chunks backwards, and use both visual and auditory memory. For example, 1270293219 I would memorize as:

nineteen
thirty-two/nineteen
029/thirty-two/nineteen
127/029/thirty-two/nineteen

Also helps to go ahead and visualize the keystroke direction and placement, like 127 is all in one direction.

>>9436346
I think it's rng my scores are really inconsistent

Reaction time doesn't have anything to do with intelligence. Just an easy addition.

Okay.

Was any of this actually supposed to be a real challenge?

I can hardly imagine anyone being worse than me in memory. It seemed somewhat easy to me until I came to the part at which I lost.

I suppose it's a decent score considering I've been awake for 25 hours.

>>9436346
Because certain patterns are much harder to recall than others

here's mine becauze lolz

>>9436545
tried everything again on a computer, makes a huge difference.

my visual memory is dog shit help me

Only one I find difficult is number memory

>>9436545
You still might have a poor long term memory.

I score well on these but I'm always forgetting things.

>>9435379

actually impressive !

I still feel like a brainlet on the visual. Think I just got kinda lucky on the verbal.

>>9435339
Those stats matter as long as you do something meaningful. If you are just a neet who spends all day posting on 4chan you can have the best visual memory on earth and it would matter

>>9435339 (OP) #
Those stats matter as long as you do something meaningful. If you are just a neet who spends all day posting on 4chan you can have the best visual memory on earth and it wouldnt matter

nice to see I'm at least in the same order of magnitude. might have done a few points better if I got more sleep

only one i care about is reaction time
i dont know wtf happened

>>9436267
do people actually do it this way? I usually just blaze through them and conk out somewhere around 100-150

Rate

Verbal one is nothing to be proud about since you could just take as long as you want memorizing the words, really there should be like a 5 sec limit to decide wheter it's a new or an old word.

>>9437379
good visual, try again on the number and post

>>9436719
This is what you get from exercise and eating natural.

>>9435339
I am really happy that my visual memory was decent seeing as I am an illustrator

>>9436348
after reading this my number jumped from 6 to 9. Wasn't expecting to be so bad at number or so good at verbal.
>>9437021
truthy

It's fine i guess.

Visual memory worse than expected.

>>9437379
are you cheating on the visual?

>>9435339
you suck at reaction time as well
i seriously dont get how the fuck anyone can get anything above 180ms, are you fucking 50 or using a 5Hz monitor?

>>9436453
reaction time has the most correlations with intelligence out of all these you retard
