    This study details a customizable computerized psychological test battery for assessing state-variables effects on cognitive and psychomotor tasks. The system offers automated administration and analysis for research flexibility.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Computer Science
    • Cognitive Science

    Background:

    • Psychological research requires precise measurement of cognitive and psychomotor functions.
    • Assessing the impact of transient state-variables on performance is crucial for understanding human behavior.
    • Existing assessment tools may lack flexibility or automated analysis capabilities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the technical specifications of a novel computerized psychological test battery.
    • To enable the examination of state-variables' effects on psychomotor, perceptual, and cognitive tasks.
    • To provide a flexible and automated platform for psychological research.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a computerized test battery with customizable task parameters (duration, number, type).
