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 always see two marble blocks labeled "1" and "2". On one of the blocks there will always be an oval object like the ones indicated by the red arrow (the objects on the other block will change on every trial, but they will never be an oval):
 

Press "1" when the Oval Object
is on Block 1

Press "2" when the Oval Object
is on Block 2

example_image_2


Press "1" or "2" on your keyboard to indicate on which block is the oval object.
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).
