Abstract: Systems and processes are provided for analyzing a test taker's knowledge, skills, and cognitive function. The systems and processes include smart questions (i.e., SmartItems) programmed with coded variables, or for multiple choice varieties, variable sets of options to cover an entire skill set being tested. The systems and processes generate questions in real time during administration of the test, by formulating and displaying, to a test taker, random combinations of a question stem and randomly-selected question components. This smart question content is unpredictably and randomly presented, as representations of the skill to be tested. The systems and processes analyze the test taker's knowledge, skills, and cognitive function about the entire domain of the skill, rather than a single fact. The systems and processes provide security to test administration.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for providing feeding reinforcement in real-time or near real-time based on physiological sensor data acquired during feeding. In some examples, music reinforcement is rendered when one or more feeding features indicative of one or more feeding behaviors are detected using the physiological sensor data. When at least one feature is not detected, the music reinforcement is stopped. In this way, contingent reinforcement is provided in real-time or near real-time based on detection of the one or more feeding behaviors to encourage and improve independent feeding behavior.
