title: A repetitive reasoning task based on simple spatial relations.
abstract: This note describes a task that requires simple reasoning and can be used, e.g., in research on noise. The task includes a series of items of approximately equal difficulty. Each item consists of five geometric figures and a sentence that claims to describe spatial relations between the figures. The subject must decide whether the description is true. The task is short (3 1/2 min.) but can be extended at will.
