The Tower of London Task

The Tower of London task is a cognitive test used to evaluate a person's executive functioning, particularly their planning, problem-solving, and problem management skills. During the task, individuals are asked to move colored blocks or rings across pegs to match a specific target arrangement within a set number of moves and time limits. It measures how well someone can plan ahead, think critically, and manage their actions strategically, making it a valuable tool for assessing brain function in clinical and research settings.
