About the Flanker Task
This task measures selective attention - your ability to focus on relevant information while ignoring distractors.
- Congruent: All arrows point same direction (easy)
- Incongruent: Flankers point opposite direction (hard)
- Neutral: Flankers are dashes (baseline)
- ← for left-pointing middle arrow
- → for right-pointing middle arrow
Flanker Effect = Incongruent RT - Congruent RT (how much distractors slow you down)
