Disclosed is a cognitive training exercise configured to train a speed of processing by a user through a divided visual attention paradigm in an intuitive, engaging, and adaptively challenging way to enhance cognition. This exercise engages users in a task where they must repeatedly identify a target, such as a target animal, from among a set of different targets, such as target animals, that rapidly appear and disappear at differing locations on an electronic screen. Users must identify the correct target from a group of potential targets to succeed. The speed at which a user identifies targets is a function of his or her memory and training. Thus the ability to identify targets quickly is a function of the success of the user's completion of the exercise.
