A method of visual cognitive training is performed at a device with a display. The method includes sequentially displaying a plurality of visual stimuli in a first region of a subjects field of view. While sequentially displaying the plurality of visual stimuli, the device moves the first region periodically along a predefined path within the subjects field of view. The device prompts the subject to respond to a task associated with the sequential display of the plurality of visual stimuli. The device receives a response to the task associated with the sequential display of the plurality of visual stimuli and records information corresponding to the subjects response to the task associated with the sequential display of the plurality of visual stimuli.
