Visual Reaction Time Test
Test your visual reaction time by responding to color and shape cues. Click only when you see a GO stimulus (green circle or gray triangle). Measure your decision speed and track your best average reaction time.

How It Works
- Click Start to begin the 10-round test.
- Wait for the stimulus to appear (random delay).
- React to GO stimuli only:
- Green circle = Click!
- Gray triangle = Click!
- Do NOT click on NO stimuli:
- Red circle = Wait
- Gray square = Wait
- Your average reaction time is calculated from GO hits only.
- Accuracy = GO hits / total GO rounds (6 total).
Tip: Use the spacebar or tap anywhere in the test area to respond. Clicking during the wait period counts as a false start and restarts the round.

These are real attempts in a browser — every device, every connection, first tries included. Published research figures are usually collected on dedicated hardware with practiced participants under controlled conditions, so they typically run faster than what this table shows. Both are useful, and they answer different questions: a score can sit well behind the research figure and still be mid-pack among people actually taking the test here.
