Abstract
The present disclosure describes systems and methods for rapidly capturing user input. Some embodiments of the present disclosure may rapidly capture user input for psychometric analysis applications. For example, a Likert scale may be used to capture the intensity of feelings of a respondent for a given item or question, and therefore can be applied to multiple domains including psychology and social sciences, business and marketing, etc. According to techniques described herein, a visual display screen may prompt respondent input (e.g., via an input prompt, question, statement, etc.). A touch-sensitive input area of the visual display screen may capture respondent input. The touch-sensitive input area may include an input bar and an input position (e.g., a slider). A respondent may control the input position along the input bar (e.g., using a finger), such that the input capture system may efficiently capture, determine, and record the input.
