ABSTRACT:
The cognometer is a portable electronic device programmed for repeated, rapid, automated assessment and monitoring of memory and concentration. The memory monitor randomly generates data and displays the same in a common format, tests the user's comprehension of such data, tests the immediate recall of such data, and tests the delayed recall of such data. The concentration monitor randomly generates a long multi-digit number and displays the same, tests the user's comprehension of such number, and tests the concentration of the user by requiring the user to enter such number while the number is displayed, but without any position cue.
