Abstract

A method for recording the process of an examinee performing a psychological test where the psychological test includes a finite number of elements that are to be sequentially manipulated. Such tests include memory tests or graphic manipulation tests such as copying complex figures. An observer uses a graphic input device, such as a touch-sensitive screen, to register and store the time each manipulation is performed. In such a way, the process is accurately recorded in an ecologically valid manner.
