The cognitive age test tries to calculate your age based on the results from a series of tests. My results were:
Memory 70 8O
Reactions 35
Fluency 23 :D

They also do an interesting task switching test here.
Response time in Emotions block 684
Response time in Gender block 456
Switching block (where you were switching from one thing to the other)
Response time for Emotions just after switch 2546
Response time for Emotions not after switch 2319
Response time for Gender just after switch 2121
Response time for Gender not after switch 2134

General switch cost 1656ms (average 213) Yikes - I'm a bit slow when it comes to task switching!
Specific switch cost 107 (average 127)

Memory 50
Reaction 70 (lol horrible)
Fluency 30

I think some bias was introduced into the memory portion by using faces of mostly (or all?) European descent. They tend to be rather indistinguishable to me, moreso than the faces of other people.

I didn't realize that there were tons and tons of combinations for the fluency part. That was pretty fun.

Since I'm moderately face-blind, I got nowhere with this. But that doesn't equate to my "cognitive age".

Slightly better...

Quite depressing. But, seems normal from everyone else's scores.
So I'm not worried.
