Brief Attention Test (BTA)
A neuropsychological assessment designed to assess the control of attention and concentration in humans. It measures the ability to maintain focus, switch attention, and process information efficiently. BTA is often used to assess attention deficits in conditions such as traumatic brain injury, dementia, ADHD, and neurological disorders. The test consists of simple tasks that require a person to respond to auditory or visual stimuli by managing distractions. The results of the test give an idea of sustained attention, selective attention and divided attention of a person. It is particularly useful for detecting attention disorders and is widely used both in clinical practice and in scientific research to assess cognitive function.
