The main focus of this study was to explore participants' subjective perspectives on how they process information, overcome challenges, and respond to various tasks in the INTB. Through a qualitative approach, this data was collected using in-depth interviews with 10 participants who had completed the entire set of tests in the INTB. The results of the analysis showed that participants' cognitive experiences were influenced by their perceptions of the test, the level of difficulty, the problem-solving strategies used, and external factors that arose during the test. Some participants also reported differences in their ability to focus and concentrate, depending on the type of test. These findings provide important insights into the factors that influence cognitive experience in neuropsychological tests, and contribute to the development of more adaptive and userfriendly assessment instruments.Keywords: Cognitive experience, INTB, subjective perception.
