How This Test Works
What It Measures
Tests your digit span — the number of numeric digits you can hold in active working memory. A sequence of digits is shown briefly, then you must type it back from memory.
How Scoring Works
Each correct recall extends the sequence by one digit. Your score is the longest sequence length you can correctly recall. The average digit span is 7±2 (Miller's Law).
What Affects Your Results
Your working memory capacity, ability to chunk digits into groups, focus during encoding, and practice with memory tasks all affect your digit span.
