In each version, the participant first observes a focal point (*) at the center of the screen (500ms) followed by the mathematical symbol stimulus (1500ms adult version; 3000ms child version).\u00a0\u00a0Participants are instructed to quickly press the green check mark if the stimulus is \u201creadable\u201d or press the red X if the stimulus is \u201cnon-readable\u201d.<\/p>\n

Experimental stimuli can be configured. Please download<\/a> this sample trial list folder and follow the README file to configure the stimuli.<\/p>\n
