#Digit span memory test Offline#
The paper will consider potential implications for online testing, for equivalence of online and offline methods, and for links between personality and performance on this cognitive test. This effect was not seen in an offline version of the study. Taken together, these studies suggest that personality characteristics may influence performance on an online cognitive test. In this instance, Agreeableness and Openness to Experience were not significantly correlated with digit span measures. In a second, laboratory based, study, 103 participants completed paper versions of the IPIP Five Factor inventory, the NEO-FFI, and a battery of cognitive tests including the WAIS 4 digit span test. Agreeableness and Openness to Experience each had small but significant associations with forward and reverse digit span. Conventional digit span tasks ask participants to respond verbally in this instance they responded by typing the digits. This required participants to repeat increasingly longer strings of digits, either in the same order (forward) or in the opposite of the presentation order (reverse). They then completed an online text-based digit span test. 345 participants passively recruited through a personality assessment website completed a Five Factor Model personality inventory derived from the International Personality Item Pool. This paper describes two studies examining links between personality and performance on a cognitive test in online and laboratory settings. Personality and performance on digit span tests in online and offline settings.
