How the Test Works

WAFV test interface showing grey box vigilance test
1

Watch the Box

A grey box appears on screen—stare at it continuously

2

React to Changes

Click immediately when the box turns black

3

Stay Alert

Maintain focus for the full test duration (3-30 minutes depending on test)

Expert Tips to Pass

Stay Focused

The box changes infrequently. Don't let your mind wander—stay visually locked on the target area.

React Fast

Click immediately when you see the change. Even a fraction of a second delay affects your score.

Find Your Rhythm

This is an endurance test. Pace yourself mentally to maintain alertness throughout.

Minimize Errors

False clicks (clicking when nothing changed) hurt your score more than missed targets.
