This is one of the tests that were administered to me for ADD. It was amusing that when things were boring, I made far more mistakes. I actually thought I was paying attention but apparently not - my mind & attention was wandering. When it was sped up I did quite well. It shows how much better I respond to fast paced jobs or when I DO pay attention, even if I had thought I had before. :-)
It is a silly, long, boring test seemingly pointless but it's often used by trained psychologists in diagnosing ADD.
