Title: Altzeimers Test

ALZHEIMERS' EYE TEST

Count every ' F ' in the following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE

SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI

FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH

THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...


Once you have counted the amount of 'F's give your answer but not the reasoning on how you came to that answer. If you've seen this before then don't play. So again just the number of F's you see.

It's a pretty classic take advantage of (:D) the way your brain reads thing. Something to do with your brain getting so used to common small words that you don't break them down into letters but just recognise them as a whole. Or something.

My gran has been diagnosed with Alzheimers, it is a horrible disease.

Incidentally I got 3 when I first did it but then got 6 when I saw how many others got 6!! :oops:

Seeing FB has given it away, the answer is 6.
I also could only see 3 and nearly every other person I know can only see 3 or 4.

Apparently the brain cannot process 'OF'.


Anyone who counts all 6 'F's' on the first go is a genius, so we have a couple of those here by looks.

Hehehe. Sorry Dell. People are still more likely to read the first post and try it before they read mine. or yours. Just brings the honesty factor in a bit more.

I don't think it shows you're a genius really. Might show that you read slower yet more carefully.

Six.  But I don't ever read the sentences in question just look for "f"s if you know what I mean.

You're clearly a retard if you didn't see 6. Counting isn't that difficult.
