Our capacity to recognise places and imagine them from alternative points of view is thought to depend on the hippocampal formation, a part of the brain that is affected during the early stages of Alzheimers Disease. The Four Mountains Test, developed at UCL and the University of York, is a simple test of this ability and of individual variation in healthy people and patients.

The Four Mountains Test is a short test of spatial memory lasting around 10 minutes. Warning: this app is intended for scientists and clinicians who regularly test patients and volunteers spatial memory. You should not buy this app unless you plan to test multiple people.

Key features:
Quick and easy to administer
Resistant to non-spatial strategies
Sensitive to hippocampal pathology
