What does this activity work on?

In this worksheet selective attention and working memory are worked on.

This activity is based on working selective attention through a cancellation task with counting.

The elements will look increasingly similar to each other as the difficulty level increases. In this way, the user has both to discriminate some stimuli from others and to keep track of how many they have already marked.

Having to keep an eye on both things (not losing count and paying close attention to the details of the elements) also brings working memory into play.
