I tried the online version of the tests, and the priming seemed to me to be built in...

After 40 or 50 training clicks, priming my brain to link "left hand" with "good" and "tested quality", of course it'll take me longer/I'll make more mistakes/etc... when you start juggling the associations around.

I had the reverse experience... the second part of the test I tried was easier than the first part... so much so that it was scary. The first half, it felt like it was taking forever for me to hit the keys, like I was in a slow-motion nightmare. The second part was like going down a greased slide.
