Processing Speed Test Printable — Symbol Coding Sheets
Unlimited fresh symbol-coding sheets for offline practice: each A4 sheet carries a pairing key (nine original geometric symbols → digits 1–9) and 108 items with fill-in boxes. Every sheet is seeded — regenerate for a new batch, reprint the same seed for an identical sheet. Print straight from your browser — unlike static PDF downloads.
Write the digit paired with each symbol (see the key) in the box under it. Left to right, top to bottom — 90 seconds, as many as you can.
How to use the printed sheets
The rule matches the online test: for each symbol, write the digit it pairs with in the key row. Go left to right, top to bottom, as fast as you can while staying accurate. Set a timer for 90 seconds, then count the correct answers and errors — both blanks are in the sheet header.
Each sheet is generated from a visible seed: "new batch" advances the seed for a completely fresh key and item order, while reprinting the same seed reproduces the exact same sheet — handy for retesting a partner or comparing two sessions fairly. A reshuffled key per sheet is the paper version of the online test’s parallel-form design: memorizing the key never transfers.
Scoring is the same convention as the research versions: count the items completed correctly — errors are tallied but never subtracted. There is no paper norm for this original-symbol sheet; your own trend across sessions is the meaningful measure. Black-and-white printing is fine — the symbols are shapes, not colors.
Frequently asked questions
How do I run the 90-second paper test?
Fill in one digit under each symbol, left to right and top to bottom. Start a 90-second timer, stop when it rings, then count correct answers (a digit is correct when it matches the symbol’s pairing in the key row) and errors. Write both in the header blanks with the date.
What does the seed on each sheet do?
The seed makes sheets reproducible: the same seed always generates the same key and item order. Press "new batch" to advance the seed for a fresh sheet, or keep the seed to reprint an identical sheet — useful for a retest or for two people doing the same form.
How do I score a printed coding sheet?
Count the items completed correctly in 90 seconds; count errors separately but do not subtract them — that is the same convention as the clinical paper versions. No published norm exists for this original-symbol sheet, so compare against your own previous sheets, week by week.
Are these printable coding sheets really free?
Yes — unlimited generation and printing, no sign-up, no watermark, no download gate. Every sheet is generated in your browser from its seed, so you can print a different one for each person or each day of the week.
