Description of Test: Qik CPT is a computerized visual continuous performance test developed for assessing
attention and impulse control. The EEG Expert Report on Qik CPT is specifically intended for use by
neurofeedback clinicians for assessment and monitoring the effects of EEG training. A simple visual target or
non-target is presented once every two seconds. During the 21-minute test, the subject must press a button to
respond to each target and not press for each non-target.

Performance Index reflects speed and consistency of response, which are continuous variables.
Accuracy Index reflects sustained attention and impulse control, which involve discrete errors.
Sustained Attention is determined by omission errors and outliers.
Impulse Control is determined by commission errors and anticipatory errors.
All indices are presented as standard scores. The range of scores is limited from 55 to 145.
Results are with reference to the 2014 population-based QIKnorm for the specific age and gender group.
Scores significantly below average (<80) are printed in red. Scores significantly above average (>120) are
printed in green.
Equivalent Age is the hypothetical age for which the specific result would be normal; it is displayed only if the
calculation is mathematically possible and for ages up to 20
The symbol ">" is used to indicate a range of scores in cases of zero error, for which data resolution does not
allow greater precision in the assignment of scores.

Omission Errors occur when the subject does not respond correctly to a target
Outliers are correct responses with very long response times.
Commission Errors occur when the subject responds incorrectly to a non-target.
Response Time is the mean of all correct reaction times to a target.
Variability is the standard deviation of correct response times.

INTERPRETATION

→ Performance Index is within normal range.


→ Accuracy Index is within normal range.

I. TOTAL SCORES:

→ All total scores are within the normal range.

II. SCORES BY SECTION

→ All scores by section are within the normal range.

→Commission Errors and Variability of Response Time: Standard scores are significantly worse in
the first section than the second section. The first section is the low demand task (target-infrequent
condition). Lower scores in the first section indicate greater difficulty maintaining attention and
control in a boring situation.

III. SCORES BY PERIOD

→ First period Commission Errors standard scores are significantly below average.

→ Standard scores for Omission Errors, Commission Errors, Variability of Response Time and
Outliers are significantly worse in period 1 than period 2.
Section 1 (periods 1 and 2) and section 3 (period 5) represent the target-infrequent or low-demand
task.

→ Standard scores for Response Time and Variability of Response Time are significantly worse in
period 3 than period 4.
Periods 3 and 4 represent the same high demand (stimulus frequent) task. Scoring worse in period 3
indicates relative difficulty changing task compared to maintaining performance of a known task.

→ Post Commission Response Time is faster than average correct Response Time in period s 1
and 5.
A Post Commission Response Time is the response time immediately following a Commission Error.
People typically slow down after a Commission Error in order to be more careful. A faster response
time following a Commission Error might result from increased speed with increased attention after a
careless error. This might indicate that Commission Errors are resulting more from inattention than
from lack of impulse control. Look at the Response Time graphs to see which Commission Errors are
faster (impulsive) or slower (inattentive) than average.
