    The Continuous Performance Test (CPT) is the most popular measure of sustained attention and vigilance. In the present study, the CPT was used to assess the visual sustained attention among 97 subjects aged 7-20 years old. The development trajectory of visual sustained attention was explored. Significant age effect was found on the hit rate, false alarm, sensitivity, and response criterion. The results revealed that 14-16-year-old adolescents may have reached a similar level of sustained attention with adults. The study makes a worthwhile contribution to the literature on the development of attention.
