Costa Rica Cognitive Capital Index
Existing CAB data provide an exploratory view of cognitive performance in Costa Rica. A representative official measurement has not yet been completed.
This is not an official national score or ranking.
The values below are unweighted country-level means from organic CogniFit records. They may reflect self-selection, uneven sample composition, device effects and other sources of bias.

What an official adult profile would add
- Representative ages 25–64 with pre-specified strata and weights.
- A locked CAB Population battery and validated administration mode.
- Confidence intervals, effective sample size and quality badge.
- Equity analysis by age, sex, education, geography and other approved groups.
- Comparable score, domain strengths and future trend measurement.

What an official youth profile would add
- Representative youth ages 15–24, with 15–17 and 18–24 subgroups where precision permits.
- Coverage beyond school-enrolled and digitally connected populations.
- Confidence intervals and demographic equity indicators.
- Direct comparison with adult outcomes without merging the two life stages.
- A baseline for future Cognitive Capital Momentum.
Official program
Establish a defensible baseline for Costa Rica.
The measurement program combines sample design, CAB Population licenses, fieldwork quality assurance, statistical weighting, certification and a public country profile.
Geography options
A national study can be complemented by states, provinces, regions or cities. A subnational measurement may also proceed before the national study when the target population and boundaries are clearly defined.
