Method for recording, assessing and premeditating performance on grapho-motor and writing tasks

摘要

A computerized method for recording and scoring the process by which an examinee performs cognitive or psychological grapho-motor tasks that call for the use of pencil and paper, such as drawing or copying graphical configurations or text. The examinee uses a digital pen that leaves a trace on a writing pad. The trace is digitized in real time, input to a computer and stored in memory as a time dependent image. The image may be displayed and scored in real time or at a later stage on a computer display. The examiner can easily replay and reevaluate the graph-motor task process at a later stage.
