Some people do a brief arithmetic task before the RS to try to "normalize" the level of arousal / state of mind.
Could be a good idea to add some optional task that:
- is arousing, i.e., requires you to mentally wake up
- is sensitive: could provide some crude measure of "attentional focus", which could be an objective measure/check of engagement/sleepiness
I am thinking either some of the analytical test with like little problems that they have to answer yes/no (the ones that we might use in PROOF) or like a brief flanker.
