Different memory testing devices, systems, and methods for conducting
memory tests, and for storing and displaying test data and trends are
disclosed. The tests generally are based on generating a random sequence
of signals, displaying the sequence to an examinee, the examinee
memorizing the sequence, and inputting the sequence into the testing
device. The signals could have visual, auditory, positional, and/or
tactile components. The signals could also be alphanumeric strings.
The testing device measures test outcome variables, computes a composite
memory score based on the test outcome variables, records and displays
the stored test data. The testing device may also include a communication
interface for periodically transferring the stored test data to a
database residing on a remote server displaying the test data of the
examinee on a website through an internet connection
The testing device need not be a physical device. Instead, it is possible
to implement the functionality of the testing device in a virtual device
which is basically a software application, installed and used on a
personal computer, a mobile phone, a PDA, etc.
