What Does the Focus Score Show?
Your Focus score reflects your ability to maintain attention and stay alert over an extended period. It’s based on a 3-minute Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PVT) — the gold standard in cognitive testing, especially for evaluating fatigue and sustained attention.
During the test, you’ll respond to a series of white light flashes by opening your hand as quickly as possible. The goal is to maintain focus and react consistently throughout the entire duration.
What the Score Reflects
Your Focus score is influenced by:
Fast, consistent reaction times to the light stimulus
The number of errors, including:
Delayed responses (slower than your usual baseline)
Missed responses (failing to react at all)
As fatigue or distractions increase, errors typically go up — making Focus a reliable indicator of cognitive impairment from lack of sleep, stress, or other factors.
Why Focus Matters
Focus plays a critical role in:
Daily performance
Work productivity
Situational awareness
Safety and decision-making
By tracking Focus, you can monitor your mental stamina, catch early signs of fatigue, and make better choices about rest and recovery.
Track and Improve
Regularly measuring Focus, alongside Readiness and Agility, gives you a well-rounded view of your cognitive performance. With these insights, you can identify how lifestyle factors like sleep, caffeine, stress, physical activity, and hydration impact your ability to stay sharp — and make adjustments to perform at your best every day.
