Abstract

A testing method and system for testing the mental performance capability of a human subject includes a digital computer workstation which presents a test to the subject, such as visumotor memory task. Simultaneously, a physiological sensing and amplification device amplifies and analyzes the subject's brain waves, eye activity, scalp and facial muscle activity, heart activity, respiration and/or skin conductance. The subject's test scores and physiological activity are compared, by the workstation, with previously collected normative measurements for that subject to determine if the test was passed with a passing score and, if so, whether the subject, in order to pass the test, exceeded a standard based upon the subject's normal mental effort in taking the same or similar tests.
