Browser-Native Cognitive Testing
for the Modern Lab
10 validated tests across 5 cognitive domains. Built on jsPsych 8. Free for academic researchers. No hardware, no downloads, no $30,000 license.
Why Researchers Choose ConductCognition
The hosted research layer on top of browser-native cognitive testing.
No Hardware
Run assessments from any browser. No tablets to ship, no software to install, and no local IT lift to start a pilot.
Millisecond Precision
jsPsych 8 powers the runtime so the study layer stays research-grade without forcing your lab to build the surrounding platform.
Remote or In-Lab
Share links for remote testing or run supervised sessions on site. The participant flow is built around browser access, fullscreen checks, and resumable sessions.
Automated Scoring
Server-side scoring computes standard measures automatically, so researchers get clean metrics instead of manually rebuilding task logic.
Data Export
Score CSV export is built in, and Academic Pro unlocks raw trial export for downstream analysis in R, SPSS, Python, and more.
Free Academic Tier
Start with 5 standard tests, 50 participants per study, 3 active studies, and score export. No credit card required.
13 Browser-Based Tests Across Core Research Domains
Built from public-domain paradigms with research-ready timing, scoring, and export workflows.
How quickly the brain can process information and execute simple motor responses.
The ability to selectively focus on relevant information while filtering distractors.
The capacity to hold and manipulate information in mind over short periods.
Higher-order cognitive processes including inhibition, cognitive flexibility, and task switching.
The ability to encode, store, and retrieve information about specific experiences.
Complete Test Battery
All tests use public-domain paradigms with automated server-side scoring. No licensing fees.
