Wisconsin Card Sort Test (WCST) (90) is a neuropsychological test of “set-shifting,” i.e., the ability to display flexibility in the face of changing schedules of reinforcement. Successful completion of the test relies upon a number of intact cognitive functions including attention, working memory, and visual processing.
