Forward Digit Span

The Forward Digit Span consists of 2 stages, the listening stage, and the recall stage. During the listening stage the iPad will read out a series of numbers, which the user will remember. Next during the recall stage, the user will be prompted to enter the series of numbers into the keypad on the right of the screen in the exact same order as they heard them. Once the user is done entering, the next listening stage and series of numbers begins, this will repeat until the test is over. The test will be over upon 2 misses in a row on the recall stage. This test assesses attention and short-term memory.
