ABSTRACT:
A system for psychometric analysis and diagnosis comprising an evaluation set of numbered questions. In a computerized version thereof, each numbered question is displayed on an I/O device with a rating scale and explanation thereof for the question. The clinician will then enter a rating datum for the numbered questions into the computer. When all evaluation set data is entered, the system will produce a graphic display or displays of the evaluation, and prioritize the symptomatic problem areas and assets of the current patient. The data of at least one previous patient may be retrieved and compared against the data of the current patient. Subsequent evaluation sets may be simultaneously graphed and compared with earlier evaluation sets, with the improvement or deterioration of patient status therebetween quickly quantified.
