  • Publication number: 20160213298
    Abstract: A file system storing an executive program and a plurality of modules such that when the executive program is executed by a processor the executive program controls the plurality of modules. The modules include a plurality of test modules for executing a specific individual test to test a cognitive attribute of a user; a plurality of test batteries having one or more specified test modules, at least one registration module for registering each of the plurality of users; a plurality of interpretive modules for interpreting results of the test batteries; and at least one report module for immediately generating a cognitive status report for reporting the test battery results as determined by the plurality of interpretive modules.

  • Patent number: 7837472
    Abstract: A computerized Neuropsychological/NeuroCognitive and Psychomotor Performance Assessment and Rehabilitation system is designed for use on handheld computer systems. Components of the system include an executive program, test modules, interpretive and report modules, and supporting utilities. The system provides point-of-use interpretations and result reports. The system is designed for use in clinical settings, occupational medicine, and research. Medical applications include use as a diagnostic, evaluation, and treatment instrument. In industrial settings it can be used as a fitness/readiness for work assessment. The assessment and rehabilitation system also contains modules for use in forensic mental competency, mental and emotional status examinations.

  • Patent number: 6669481
    Abstract: A neurocognitive assessment device is provided including a library of computer implemented neurocognitive tests. Each neurocognitive test is provided with a performance module, an instruction module and a correction module. The performance module generates a plurality of stimuli on a computer screen to which a test subject is prompted to respond. If the test subject produces N consecutive incorrect responses, the correction module automatically interrupts the test operation and displays test instructions on screen.
