Research data

Useful statistical data, collected with clear consent.

Open Cognitive Research is designed to collect only what is useful for interpretation and research, while avoiding unnecessary personal information.

What may be collected

  • Age range or year of birth
  • Country and language
  • Education level
  • Device type
  • Quiet or distracted environment
  • Sleep, fatigue and stress context
  • Answer accuracy and response time
  • Category-level scores and test date

What should be separate

  • Email for saved results
  • Annual reminder preferences
  • Account identity
  • Any future sensitive medical fields

Email identity should be logically separated from pseudonymized research data.

What should not be collected early

  • Unnecessary personal identifiers
  • Detailed medical history without separate consent
  • Clinical claims without validation
  • Hidden research participation

Consent model

Research contribution should be an explicit choice, separate from simply using the test. A participant may use a cognitive test without agreeing to contribute pseudonymized results to research.

See the full Research Consent and Privacy Policy pages for the intended separation between account identity and research datasets.
