Select the oval object as fast as you can without making mistakes!


Help us understand better how humans detect objects correctly under different conditions.

You will see two marble blocks. On one of the blocks there will always be an oval object like the ones indicated by the red arrow below (the objects on the other block will change on every trial, but they will never be an oval). After the objects move briefly, the numbers 1 and 2 --in any order-- will appear on the marble blocks.

Your task is to press "1" or "2" on your keyboard to indicate the number of the block where the oval object is. Note that the numbers may appear on different marble blocks on each trial.

You should do this as quickly as you can without making mistakes. You'll have up to 1 second to respond. We'll let you know if you were too slow. Please mind that your responses will be useful only if at least 80% of them are correct. We will give you feedback on each trial (green = correct, red = wrong).
