Description

Method and System for Providing Comprehensive Cognitive Function Test Solutions

[0001] The present invention relates to a method and system for providing a comprehensive cognitive function test solution, and more specifically, to a method and system for providing a comprehensive cognitive function test solution that complements the limitations of existing neuropsychological assessments, maintains a similar level of clinical validity, significantly reduces assessment time through an automated system, increases the number of tests that can be performed daily, and enables the test to be performed without the assistance of a skilled (or trained) professional neuropsychologist.

[0002] South Korea is one of the countries in the world experiencing a rapid increase in its elderly population, with the population aged 65 or older reaching 18.43% of the total population as of 2023 (Statistics Korea, 20231). One of the social problems emerging as society enters an aging phase is the increase in patients with geriatric diseases, and interest in dementia, the most representative geriatric disease, is growing (Alzheimer's Disease International, 20152).

[0003] South Korea announced the National Dementia Responsibility System policy in 2017 and began establishing a multifaceted dementia support system, including the provision of various integrated dementia services and the strengthening of medical support. Efforts to address medical and social issues caused by dementia are also being made at the national level.

[0004] Dementia refers to a condition in which a person is unable to maintain daily life independently, accompanied by impairment of cognitive functions—including memory, language ability, and judgment—due to various causes such as degenerative brain diseases. One of the key elements of dementia prevention is the early detection of cognitive decline. Therefore, when a patient suspected of having dementia or cognitive impairment visits an institution such as a hospital or a dementia care center, the first test performed to assess the patient's cognitive status is a neuropsychological evaluation.

[0005] Neuropsychological evaluation measures the levels of key cognitive areas of the brain, such as attention, language ability, visuospatial ability, memory, and frontal lobe / executive function, while assessing the ability to perform daily activities through questionnaires and interviews with caregivers. Additionally, medical tests such as blood tests, brain imaging, and cerebrospinal fluid analysis are conducted to identify underlying diseases causing cognitive decline. Furthermore, since dementia is a degenerative disease, it is crucial to monitor changes in cognitive function through continuous monitoring to appropriately identify the timing for therapeutic intervention; thus, neuropsychological evaluation is essential for closely observing an individual's patterns of cognitive change.

[0006] As such, neuropsychological assessment has established itself as an essential procedure in the prevention and treatment of dementia. Traditionally, neuropsychological assessments are conducted in a paper-and-pen format. Depending on the examinee's cognitive state and the examiner's proficiency, the time required for testing, scoring, and report writing may vary. Consequently, when completing all these procedures, the number of examinees a single clinical psychologist can evaluate per day is limited to an average of two to three.

[0007] Based on a comprehensive review of various press releases and full survey results regarding the number of tests conducted at dementia care centers, it is estimated that approximately 350,000 to 400,000 neuropsychological assessments are performed annually (HIRA, 20243; Ministry of Health and Welfare, 20194). On the other hand, among the 11 million elderly people in South Korea, the number of people diagnosed with dementia has surpassed 1 million, and the estimated number of patients with mild cognitive impairment who have been diagnosed or need to be diagnosed is approximately 2.5 million.

[0008] Therefore, the number of people who currently need follow-up examinations or neuropsychological evaluations for new diagnoses approaches 3 million, but the supply provided is limited to only 400,000 cases compared to the demand.

Here, the computer may include devices such as a laptop, desktop, or notebook equipped with navigation and a web browser. Furthermore, the inspection terminal may be implemented as a device capable of connecting to a remote server or terminal via a network, and may also be utilized as a wireless communication device with portability and mobility. For example, the inspection terminal may include various handheld-based wireless communication devices such as navigation devices, PCS (Personal Communication System), GSM (Global Mobile Communication System), PDC (Personal Digital Cellular), PHS (Personal Mobile Phone System), PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), IMT-2000 (International Mobile Communication), CDMA-2000, W-CDMA, Wibro terminals, smartphones, smart pads, or tablet PCs.

[0096] Additionally, examinees can access the examinee registration web page using a web browser installed on the examination terminal (e.g., Google Chrome, Safari, Microsoft Edge, etc.). They can access the page by entering a pre-provided web address (e.g., cst.beaubrain.center) into the browser's URL input field or by clicking a pre-configured shortcut icon. During this process, they can log in to the web page using a pre-assigned ID (in the form of an email) and password. Furthermore, the registration website may use the HTTPS protocol to enhance security, and to this end, the examination terminal may support the latest browsers and security certificates.

[0097] Additionally, in step S401, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) checks whether the date of birth in the resident registration of the examinee received via the test terminal matches the actual biological date of birth, and if the date of birth in the resident registration of the examinee matches the actual biological date of birth, the date of birth in the resident registration is registered, and if the date of birth in the resident registration of the examinee does not match the actual biological date of birth, the actual biological date of birth is registered instead of the date of birth in the resident registration.

[0098] In addition, at this time, if information regarding the name, gender, date of birth, highest level of education and handle direction corresponding to the essential information is not entered, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can disable the registration button on the registration screen.

[0099] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can provide registered examinee information to the examinee through a test terminal to verify whether the examinee information has been accurately entered. This is described in more detail as follows.

[0100] Looking at Fig. 5, as shown in Fig. 5(a), the examinee opens an internet browser through the examination terminal and accesses the web page of the examinee management system. Afterward, the examinee uses the examination terminal to enter an ID (e.g., in the form of an email) and a password on the web page. After entering the ID and clicking the 'Login' button, the system verifies whether the ID and password match, and if the authentication is successful, a dashboard or main page opens on the screen of the examination terminal.

[0101] In addition, as shown in Fig. 5(b), by using the examination terminal to check the menu panel located on the left side of the main page and finding and clicking the 'Examinee Management' item in the menu, one can move to the examinee management page.

[0102] In addition, when the '+Register Examinee' button displayed at the top of the screen or at a specific location on the examinee management page is clicked using the examination terminal, a new window or new page is opened as shown in Fig. 5(c), and a registration form appears where examinee information can be entered.

[0103] At this time, each item displayed on the registration form (e.g., name, gender, date of birth, contact information, etc.) is entered using a test terminal, and after all information is entered, the 'Register' button located at the bottom is clicked, and the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) checks the entered data and saves it to the database.

[0104] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) undergoes a process of verifying whether the entered date of birth is identical to the information on the resident registration and the actual biological date of birth, and if the two values ​​are different, the entry is made based on the actual biological date of birth. This is one of the important criteria in the registration process to maintain the accuracy of the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100).

[0105] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) disables the 'Register' button so that registration cannot be completed if all required items, such as name, gender, date of birth, highest level of education, and handle direction, are not entered, thereby ensuring that all required items are thoroughly checked.

[0106] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can receive the final educational background and graduation status using a test terminal, and then allow the examinee to manually input the total number of years of education using the test terminal. This can be linked to a function that allows the examinee to directly input, modify, or update the number of years of education using a keyboard.

[0107] When registration is completed, key information such as the name, gender, age, and date of birth of the newly created examinee is displayed on the screen of the examination terminal, and during this process, it can be verified whether the accurate information of the examinee created on the examinee registration page has been correctly entered.

[0108] Next, let's look at the S402 steps as follows.

[0109] Figure 6 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting a cognitive function test on a test subject using the test terminal.

[0110] Referring to FIG. 6, in step S402, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) accesses a web for conducting cognitive function tests using a test terminal, receives the examinee's name, gender, date of birth, and contact information using the test terminal, authenticates the examinee based on the received name, gender, date of birth, and contact information and previously registered examinee information, executes a cognitive function test program retrieved from the web for conducting cognitive function tests using the test terminal, and conducts the cognitive function test according to a pre-set test sequence.

[0111] More specifically, as shown in FIG. 6(a), when a cognitive function test program retrieved from a web for conducting cognitive function tests is executed through a test terminal, a login window appears on the first screen, and the examinee logs in by entering the previously assigned institution ID and password. At this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) verifies the entered information and then moves to the examinee information verification page. Here, the examinee information verification page refers to a screen where examinees can be viewed at the relevant institution while logged in to the examiner's institution.

[0112] In addition, as shown in Fig. 6(b), when the institution registration number (such as the medical record number, customer number, or examinee number of an institution like a hospital, medical examination center, or dementia care center) is looked up on the examinee information input screen, if it matches the examinee for whom the test is scheduled, an examinee information confirmation screen appears, and the examinee information can be looked up or modified once again.

[0113] Additionally, in one embodiment, step S402 may include a step of displaying a hidden menu exclusively for the test administrator on the screen of the test terminal when a specific logo or a specific test name displayed on the screen of the test terminal is repeatedly selected using the test terminal. This is described as follows.

[0114] Figure 7 is a diagram showing a state in which a hidden menu exclusively for the test administrator is displayed on the screen of the test terminal according to the repeated selection of a specific logo or a specific test name.

[0115] Referring to Fig. 7, a hidden menu is displayed when one or more areas of the screen are touched one or more times with a preset pattern using an inspection terminal. For example, it may be displayed upon three touches of the top-left corner or two touches of the top-right corner. This menu includes various options related to the progress of the inspection.

[0116] For example, options related to the scan progress include replaying the current scan, previous questions within the scan, next, previous scan, next scan, and ending all scans, and the corresponding process can be executed when such an option is selected.

[0117] In addition, the overall test sequence for conducting cognitive function tests through the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) in step S402 is as follows.

[0118] Figure 8 is a diagram showing the general test sequence of the cognitive function test.

[0119] Looking at Fig. 8, the cognitive function test proceeds automatically according to a programmed sequence, and the total test time varies depending on the examinee's condition and performance ability. Generally, the test may take about 25 to 35 minutes.

[0120] The order of the inspection may proceed in the following sequence according to a pre-established procedure.

[0121] The first test conducted evaluates the examinee's memory, verifying their current state of memory in the initial stages. This test is an important process for measuring how well the examinee can remember and reproduce information.

[0122] The second test is an attention test, which evaluates the examinee's ability to focus and sustain attention. This process assesses basic abilities in working memory and concentration.

[0123] The third test is designed to verify how well the examinee perceives time. This test evaluates whether the examinee can accurately perceive and understand the current time.

[0124] The fourth test evaluates the examinee's frontal lobe function. The frontal lobe is a crucial part of the brain responsible for planning, reasoning, and problem-solving, and this test measures the capabilities of the frontal lobe.

[0125] The fifth test evaluates how the examinee perceives and understands space-time. This is an important part of measuring the examinee's visual and spatial thinking abilities.

[0126] The sixth test evaluates memory again in the same manner as the initial memory test. At this stage, changes in the subject's memory can be tracked by comparing it with the first memory test.

[0127] Finally, a language task is conducted to assess the test taker's language ability. This is an important part that measures the test taker's ability to understand and express words.

[0128] At this time, after completing the first memory test, a delay of approximately 10 minutes is provided. During this 10-minute period, the examinee proceeds with other tests, including the second memory test. However, tests related to language function are excluded during this time. That is, language tasks are not performed during the 10-minute delay, and tests evaluating other cognitive functions are conducted. After 10 minutes have passed, the second memory test begins, followed by the remaining tests in sequence.

[0129] The process of how each of these inspection processes is conducted can be examined in more detail as follows.

[0130] Figure 9 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting an immediate memory test of the first memory test process.

[0131] Looking at Fig. 9, the first memory test (Word Place Association Test - Immediate free Recall) can mean a word-place association test, that is, an immediate memory test.

[0132] To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) arranges multiple words related to each of multiple categories at a certain location so as not to overlap each other, displays each word sequentially on the screen of the test terminal, and then repeats the moment presentation action of covering the word a preset number of times, and after the moment presentation action is repeated, guides the test subject to say the word they remember in voice through the test terminal, and can record and store the word spoken by the test subject in voice for a preset time limit using a microphone device mounted on the test terminal.

[0133] For example, in the first memory test, a total of nine words related to three categories (animals, vegetables, and school supplies) are presented. The animal category includes fox, elephant, and roe deer. The vegetable category includes water celery, cucumber, and carrot. The school supplies category includes fountain pen, scissors, and eraser. The nine words are presented repeatedly a total of three times, and the examinee is asked to recall them immediately during each session.

[0134] In this case, regarding the process for each session, nine words are presented at once in the first session. The examinee memorizes them and is asked to recall the presented words immediately after the session ends. Additionally, in the second session, the same nine words are presented again, and the examinee evaluates which words were remembered by comparing them with those recalled in the first session. A recall test is then conducted immediately. Furthermore, in the third session, nine words are presented again, and the examinee is again asked to recall based on what was remembered in the previous session.

[0135] In each session, the examinee's memory and recall abilities are evaluated, measuring how well the examinee remembers and recalls words within each category, as well as how well they perceive the relationships between categories. Repetitive presentation over three sessions is an important method for evaluating how effectively the examinee utilizes not only short-term memory but also long-term memory.

[0136] Additionally, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) conducts the test according to instructions that are automatically played during the process of conducting the first memory test, places nine words in each position of a 3x3 grid without overlapping, and presents one word every 2 seconds. Each word is displayed on the screen of the test terminal and is simultaneously presented as voice through a voice output device (e.g., a speaker). The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) accurately outputs the words visually at 2-second intervals through timing control and synchronizes the voice to simultaneously deliver them to the examinee.

[0137] After all nine words are presented, the recall procedure begins immediately. In this procedure, the examinee is encouraged to freely recall words they have previously seen, and the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) automatically handles this process. When a "Start" button appears on the screen, the examinee presses it to start the recall procedure, and when a microphone-shaped screen appears, the examinee provides their response in voice. The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) automatically records this voice response through the microphone and stores the recorded data on a server or local storage so that it can be analyzed.

[0138] This test is repeated a total of three times, and the word presentation and recall procedures are carried out identically in each session. The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) controls the flow of each step through a processor and retrieves a list of words from memory and transmits them to a display device and a voice output device. In addition, the examinee's voice input is automatically processed and stored by a voice recognition system. The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) manages all these processes in real time and accurately records the results to ensure the test proceeds smoothly.

[0139] Meanwhile, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) presents nine words and then provides the examinee with one minute of opportunity time for immediate recall. During this opportunity time, the examinee can recall the words displayed on the screen and respond, and the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) limits this to exactly one minute through a timing control system. The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) uses a timer function to automatically terminate the immediate recall procedure and move to the next screen when one minute has elapsed. At this time, it is set so that any additional responses made after the examinee has used up all the opportunity time are not treated as correct answers.

[0140] After immediate recall is finished, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) is automatically managed so as not to mention information related to delayed recall and recognition tasks to the examinee. For example, when the examinee moves to the next screen after recall, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) is configured so that no mention of delayed recall or recognition tasks is made through the voice output device. To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) controls the voice output system of the test terminal so as not to output phrases such as "I will ask you about these words again in a moment," and so as not to provide unnecessary information.

[0141] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) controls this process overall through a processor and accurately manages timing and data flow to support the examinee in proceeding with the recall procedure within a designated time and naturally moving on to the next step. At this time, the display device of the test terminal switches the screen, and the voice output device is configured to deliver only accurate instructions.

[0142] Figure 10 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting an attention test.

[0143] Looking at Figure 10, the Visual Span Test refers to a visual attention span test. The Visual Span Test is a test designed to evaluate visual attention and consists of Forward (VST) and Backward (VST). Stimuli are presented sequentially in nine randomly arranged squares. At this time, the stimuli are presented in the form of flashing blue lights.

[0144] To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) displays a plurality of marks arranged at random positions on the screen of a test terminal so as not to overlap each other, performs a forward sequential flashing operation in which a preset number of marks among the plurality of marks are flashed sequentially in a first direction, and, using the test terminal, provides instructions to select a mark after an instruction sound instructing to select a mark is output, and after the forward sequential flashing operation is performed, guides the test subject to select the marks in the order they were flashed through the test terminal, and recognizes the order of the marks selected sequentially by the test subject using a touchscreen display device mounted on the test terminal.

[0145] Additionally, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) displays a plurality of marks arranged on the screen of a test terminal so as not to overlap each other, sequentially flashes a predetermined number of marks among the plurality of marks in a direction different from the first direction, and after the sequential flashing operation is performed, guides the test subject to select the marks in reverse order of the flashing order through the test terminal, and stores the order of the marks selected by the test subject using a touchscreen display device mounted on the test terminal.

[0146] In this process, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) proceeds to the "reverse-following task" after completing the "immediate-following task" according to the test order. These two tasks consist of practice problems and main problems, and the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) proceeds with each problem sequentially.

[0147] The practice problem presents two spans, and during this process, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) uses a test terminal to sequentially display the spans. After the practice problem, a buzzer sound (beep sound) is provided from a voice output device to notify the examinee of the transition to the task. The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) ensures that the same number of spans are presented twice, and at this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) proceeds with the presentation of the two spans at an accurate time interval through a timing control system.

[0148] The timing control system increases the number of spans when the examinee answers correctly, and sequentially displays the increased number of spans using the test terminal. The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) automatically reflects the increase in the number of spans immediately when the examinee answers correctly, and notifies the examinee through the test terminal if the examinee gives an incorrect response (wrong answer).

[0149] If two consecutive incorrect responses occur, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) terminates the task through an automatic termination function. At this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) terminates the task under the control of a processor, saves the task data that was in progress, and prepares to move on to the next task.

[0150] The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) controls all these processes in real time and manages functions such as timing, data flow, voice output, and input processing to facilitate the smooth progress of the test. The memory stores whether each span is correct, the timer manages the time for each problem, and the test terminal accurately presents the problem to the examinee.

[0151] Additionally, in one embodiment, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) appropriately manages and adjusts the test subject's response during the test. If some test subjects attempt to respond before the buzzer sound is emitted, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) utilizes a timing control system to induce them to press the span only after the buzzer sound is emitted. At this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) sequentially presents spans on the screen so that the test subject does not cover the span with their arm or hand, and controls the voice output device so that the buzzer sound is emitted at the correct time.

[0152] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) is designed not to provide advance notice of the number of spans. The test terminal does not provide guidance on how many spans will appear, and prevents the examinee from guessing the number while proceeding with the task. In addition, the voice output device is configured not to provide guidance to the examinee, such as "This time, there will be 4 spans."

[0153] Additionally, in the case where the examinee attempts to press immediately during the reverse press task, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) does not provide feedback such as "You must press in reverse" through the feedback system. Instead, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) automatically proceeds with the problem according to the timing and sequence and guides the examinee to respond correctly. In this process, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) does not provide direct feedback from the test terminal, but only provides the problem sequentially according to the test flow.

[0154] Figure 11 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting a time orientation test.

[0155] Looking at Fig. 11, the Time Orientation test is a test in which the subject is asked the year, month, day, day of the week, and season to determine time orientation. At this time, the subject is asked to respond by entering the answer using a keypad or by touching the correct answer among the presented visual stimuli.

[0156] At this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) plays a role in controlling the test environment and is configured so that unnecessary elements are not included in the subject's field of vision. Before the test begins, the test terminal and the surrounding environment are checked to ensure that external elements, such as a calendar, are not visible on the screen. To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) automatically optimizes the screen display area and provides environment adjustment options that the examiner can set to ensure that unnecessary objects or information are not visible within the subject's field of vision.

[0157] Additionally, if the subject attempts to check their mobile phone, the interface system may recognize this or provide a notification function to help the subject focus on the test. For example, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) monitors the subject's attempt to use their mobile phone and induces the subject's concentration through voice guidance or on-screen notifications to minimize such attempts. At this time, the voice output device induces the subject to refrain from using their mobile phone while the test is in progress and provides guidance to minimize the subject's attempts to use their mobile phone.

[0158] Additionally, if the subject refuses to perform during the examination process, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) manages the response time and progress status and provides feedback to the examiner through the response system so that the subject can be encouraged.

[0159] For example, the voice output device may be equipped with a feature that provides encouraging messages such as, "It is okay to be wrong, but please try to guess." The processor maintains the test flow even if the subject does not respond during the test and prompts the subject to attempt a rough answer through the test terminal.

[0160] The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can provide such encouragement and feedback through an automated system and optimize and support the environment so that the test subject can participate more actively in the test process.

[0161] Figure 12 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting a frontal lobe function test.

[0162] Looking at Fig. 12, the frontal lobe function test (Korean - Trail Making Test Elderly version, K-TMT-E) refers to the Korean version of the Trail Making Test for the Elderly. The frontal lobe function test is designed to evaluate executive functions, which are the primary functions of the frontal lobe, and is divided into two types (part A & B). This is a test in which one connects randomly placed stimuli by drawing lines as quickly as possible using a dedicated stylus pen according to established rules.

[0163] For example, Fig. 12(a) is a task to connect the numbers from 1 to 15 in order as quickly as possible.

[0164] To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) sequentially displays numbers from 1 to 15 on a screen using a display device. Each number is placed at a specific position on a screen designed to allow the examinee to connect the numbers in order using a dedicated stylus pen. The system enables the examinee to connect the numbers by accurately touching them with the dedicated stylus pen, and the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) detects the position of the pen in real time through a touchscreen and provides visual feedback on the screen whenever a connection is completed. To this end, the touch input system accurately tracks the movement of the stylus pen and records the examinee's speed and accuracy to store test data.

[0165] Fig. 12(b) is a task of connecting numbers and days of the week as quickly as possible in alternating number-day order.

[0166] To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) simultaneously displays numbers (1 to 8) and days of the week (Monday to Sunday) on a display device. Using a dedicated stylus pen, the examinee must alternately connect the numbers and days of the week in the order of 'number-day of the week', and to this end, numbers and days of the week are alternately arranged on the screen. Each number and day of the week is arranged in adjacent positions so that they can be easily connected using the dedicated stylus pen. The touch input of the stylus pen is recognized in real time through the touchscreen system of the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100), enabling the examinee to quickly alternately connect the numbers and days of the week.

[0167] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) utilizes a timer system to record how quickly and accurately the examinee connects numbers and days of the week, and analyzes the results to evaluate test performance. Furthermore, it can accurately track the movements of the examinee's dedicated stylus pen during the test and notify the examinee of the input through a real-time feedback system if an error occurs. A voice output device or display device provides warning messages or guidance if necessary to help the examinee correct the error.

[0168] Meanwhile, in this process, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) is designed to perform the test task by necessarily using a dedicated stylus pen. To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) utilizes a high-resolution touchscreen for accurate detection of the dedicated stylus pen. Since compatibility issues may occur when touching with a normal fingertip instead of using a dedicated stylus pen, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) requires that a dedicated stylus pen be used and optimizes pen detection accuracy to accurately track the position of the pen.

[0169] When conducting the test, if the examinee does not fully understand the instructions, the examiner may verbally explain the task method again through a voice output device or a display device during the practice item stage. However, once the main test begins, the provision of explanations and hints is prohibited, and from this point on, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) automatically proceeds with the test procedure and provides an interface that the examinee can understand. The test terminal provides a simple and intuitive screen so that the examinee can autonomously perform the test task without clear instructions or explanations.

[0170] The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) is designed so that a dedicated stylus pen must accurately touch the edge of a circle to be recognized as a correct response. The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) detects pen input when the stylus pen accurately touches the edge of a circle on the screen, and at this time, the test terminal provides visual feedback in which the edge of the circle is activated in blue. Through this, the subject can recognize that a response is recognized when the stylus pen correctly touches the circle.

[0171] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) uses high-sensitivity touchscreen technology to increase the accuracy of response detection, and this technology tracks the movement of the stylus pen very precisely so that a response occurs only at the correct location. The voice output device outputs only a warning sound or notification sound at stages where explanations cannot be provided, thereby inducing the examinee to respond accurately according to the test procedure.

[0172] Figure 13 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting a spatiotemporal ability test.

[0173] Referring to Fig. 13, the Block Design Test is a test designed to evaluate spatiotemporal function, in which the screen's shape is made to match the figure presented as an example.

[0174] This is a task involving moving blocks placed at the bottom. It consists of a total of 10 questions, with the difficulty increasing towards the end. If all presented blocks are matched, the next button at the bottom of the screen becomes active, allowing you to proceed to the next question. The time limit and point allocation for each question vary, and the test is automatically stopped if two or more consecutive attempts are failed.

[0175] Even if the attention, orientation, and executive function tests are conducted after the first memory test (WPAT-Immediate free Recall) examined earlier, if 10 minutes (the delay time for the memory recall task) has not passed, the visuospatial test is automatically administered in the order following the frontal lobe / executive function test (K-TMT-E).

[0176] To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) guides the examinee to move and arrange multiple piece blocks into a movement area using an input means connected to the test terminal through a test terminal so that they form the shape of a figure to be seen, and recognizes the position and movement path of the piece blocks moved and arranged through the input means.

[0177] More specifically, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) visually provides example items through a test terminal for automatic demonstration, and the examinee can look at this and solve the practice items directly. The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) automatically executes the example items so that the examinee can understand the task method. After the demonstration, the examinee drags one of the six blocks displayed at the bottom of the screen into a blank space using a dedicated stylus pen. The touchscreen system accurately tracks the position of the stylus pen, and the system detects a response so that the block does not move further when it is accurately placed in the blank space.

[0178] If the answer is correct, the block stops moving, and the processor automatically switches to the next page to present the next question. This process is accurately executed through the integration of touchscreen input detection and page transition software, and the system, which processes page transitions in real-time after the examinee answers correctly, ensures a smooth flow that matches the examinee's progress speed.

[0179] Additionally, in one embodiment, a situation may occur where the examinee places unnecessary pieces sporadically in empty spaces or does not place the pieces in their proper places, so that all six pieces are not visible on the screen. At this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) monitors the screen on which the examinee performs the task in real time through a display device and ensures that the pieces are aligned so that they are not cut off on the screen.

[0180] If the fragments are placed outside the screen or are scattered, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can automatically detect this and provide a warning system that induces intervention by the examiner. The examiner can switch to manual intervention mode to organize the unnecessarily scattered fragments. At this time, the test terminal reflects the location and status in real time so that the examinee can organize them, and allows the examinee to resume work after correction.

[0181] Additionally, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) is configured to induce intervention by the examiner without interfering with the examinee's performance. The examiner can observe the examinee's work in real time and, if necessary, rearrange the blocks displayed on the test terminal to ensure the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) operates smoothly. The examiner can verify the actions performed by the examinee through the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) that detects reactions and intervene to prevent the work from being hindered by incorrect placement.

[0182] FIG. 14 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting a delayed recall memory test of the second memory test process, FIG. 15 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting a word recognition test among the word location association tests of the second memory test process, and FIG. 16 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting a location recognition test among the word location association tests of the second memory test process.

[0183] Looking at Fig. 14, the second memory test in Fig. 14 is the Word Place Association Test - Delayed Free Recall, WPAT-DR, which is a delayed recall memory test.

[0184] In this delayed recall memory test, the WPAT-DR task is presented after a delay of at least 10 minutes from the time the first memory test is completed. WPAT-DR is a delayed recall task that evaluates the ability to retrieve information that has already been learned.

[0185] At this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) designs a system interface to enable the examinee to accurately perform a delayed recall task, tracks the examinee's response in real time, and supports the provision of appropriate delayed recall opportunities.

[0186] To this end, instructions are displayed on the screen of the test terminal asking the examinee to say a word they remember, and a delay recall is performed by providing a maximum opportunity time of 1 minute. During this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) detects the examinee's response in real time, and a 1-minute timer is activated so that the task is automatically terminated or the next step is moved after the time has elapsed.

[0187] Additionally, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) tracks whether the examinee responds through a voice recognition system or a touch screen. If the examinee does not respond, or if there is a "I don't know (DK)" or "No response (NR)", or if a pause of 3 seconds or more is detected, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) automatically displays an additional question such as "Do you remember any other words?" accordingly. This question appears as text on the screen of the test terminal and can help the examinee recall additional words.

[0188] Looking at Fig. 15, the second memory test in Fig. 15 is the Word Place Association Test - Word Recognition, WPAT-WR, that is, a word recognition test which is a word-place association test.

[0189] The Word Recognition task of WPAT is a test in which 18 words are displayed one by one at the top of the screen, including 9 words belonging to the same category as the 3 categories of words trained in WPAT:IR. The task involves the examinee looking at a word and determining whether it is a word that appeared in the WPAT:IR task, selecting O for words that appeared and X for words that did not.

[0190] To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) presents multiple words through a test terminal and guides the subject to select whether the word was presented during the process of conducting the first memory test, and recognizes the word selected by the subject using a touchscreen display device mounted on the test terminal.

[0191] At this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) is configured so that the examinee cannot return to the previous item and modify it after completing the response. This is to prevent the examinee from modifying the answer already selected by switching to an unmodifiable state after the item is submitted in the software interface. The response is maintained in a completed state until the examinee proceeds to the next item, at which point the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) blocks movement to the previous item.

[0192] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) is designed to automatically process examiner feedback when the examinee shows a correct response, thereby avoiding direct mention of the correctness.

[0193] For example, when the examinee responds incorrectly, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) does not provide feedback such as "You are doing well" or "That is not the correct answer," but instead outputs a neutral message such as "Please continue" or "Move to the next question."

[0194] In this way, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) is automatically adjusted so that the examiner can avoid direct feedback. In this process, the voice recognition system analyzes the examinee's response and provides appropriate automated feedback for inaccurate responses, and the examiner sets the system so that the examinee is not given the opportunity to correct the incorrect answer, thereby supporting the entire process to be kept fair and consistent.

[0195] Looking at Fig. 16, the second memory test in Fig. 16 is the Word Place Association Test - Place Recognition, WPAT-PR, that is, a word-place association test and place recognition test.

[0196] After completing the WPAT-WR test, the WPAT-PR test is administered. WPAT-PR is a spatial memory recognition task in which one of the nine words exposed in the first memory test appears at the top of the screen, and the examinee is asked to select the location where the word was presented.

[0197] In this process, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) uses a test terminal to present nine words learned in the place recognition task one by one and guides the user to touch the word or the location where it appeared on the screen.

[0198] At this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) provides a warning that even if the examinee requests a correction after responding, they cannot go back to the previous item to make corrections.

[0199] Fig. 17 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting a semantic word fluency test among language ability tests, Fig. 18 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting a phonemic word fluency test among language ability tests, and Fig. 19 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of conducting a low-frequency word face-to-face naming test among language ability tests.

[0200] Looking at Fig. 17, the language ability test in Fig. 17 is the Semantic Word Fluency Test (SWFT), which is a test to assess language fluency and involves a task of saying as many words as possible on a specific topic within a time limit. It is divided into two tests that examine 'semantic generative naming ability,' which requires considering the meaning of words, and 'phonemic generative naming ability,' which requires considering the phonemes of letters. Both tests are tasks designed to produce as many words as possible that correspond to the presented semantic category or phoneme within a limited time.

[0201] In the semantic word fluency test, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) supports the test taker in producing as many fruit names as possible within one minute. The time limit is implemented as a timer and is displayed in real-time at the top of the screen. Meanwhile, in addition to fruits, any object can be a subject if it is of a variety of types. Also, the timer counts down for one minute, and when the time runs out, a "Time Out" message appears automatically, and the test taker can no longer respond. Additionally, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) may set a timer notification sound (buzzer sound) to sound a warning sound just before the time runs out to notify the test taker of the time end.

[0202] Additionally, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) is designed so that when a test taker attempts to verify whether their response is correct, for example, by asking "Is 00 also a fruit?", the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) does not provide whether the answer is correct. The voice recognition system detects the test taker's question, but is configured so that the test taker cannot provide whether the response is correct. At this time, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) has the function of detecting the test taker's question through voice recognition technology and inducing the test taker not to provide feedback on whether the answer is correct.

[0203] Therefore, when the examinee asks a question, a notification message stating "Cannot provide the correct answer" appears on the screen, thereby instructing the examiner not to answer the question.

[0204] Looking at FIG. 18, the language ability test of FIG. 18 is a PWFT, that is, a phoneme-word fluency test, and the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) allows the examinee to input as many words starting with 'ㄷ' as possible within a time limit of 1 minute. In addition, here, 'ㄷ' is one example, and other phonemes in addition to 'ㄷ' can also be applied.

[0205] The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) checks in real time whether the word entered by the examinee starts with 'ㄷ', and if the examinee enters a word that starts with double 'ㄷ', the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) detects the word and provides feedback to the examinee to enter only words that start with 'ㄷ'.

[0206] In addition, in one embodiment, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can perform the following processing on the input words according to the PWFT scoring criteria.

[0207] In the case of derived words, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) compares identical prefixes or derived words and processes only the first input word as the correct answer, and excludes derived words input thereafter from the correct answer.

[0208] For example, if words such as "Mother Nature," "college student," or "university" are entered, the system considers only the first entered "Mother Nature" as a valid answer.

[0209] In addition, both nouns and verbs are recognized as correct answers, and the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) immediately identifies the action or noun form entered by the examinee and stores it as the correct answer. However, place names or proper nouns (e.g., Daejeon, Daegu, Daniel, etc.) are treated as incorrect answers instead of correct answers.

[0210] Looking at Fig. 19, the language ability test in Fig. 19 is the DNT, or low-frequency word confrontation naming test, which measures confrontation naming ability among language ability tests. The DNT task is a test that borrows 15 low-frequency words from among words actually used in daily life through a dictionary of Korean word frequencies.

[0211] To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) allows the examinee to look at a picture and input the name of the object. The time limit for each picture is set to 15 seconds, and the target word within the picture is highlighted in blue. If the examinee responds while looking at a part of the picture that is not the core (for example, if the examinee looks at the picture and says "It's a door"), the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) immediately displays a guidance message on the screen to guide the examinee to look at the correct part and respond.

[0212] In addition, if the examinee attempts to proceed by operating the ‘Next’ button without entering an appropriate word, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) automatically disables the button so that the examinee can proceed only after entering a response. In addition, if a similar incorrect answer is entered, a message saying “What is it called in other words?” is displayed once to induce an additional response, and if no other answer is given, the incorrect answer is treated as an incorrect response, and the process moves on to the next question.

[0213] The comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) monitors this process in real time and automatically verifies whether the response is accurate and valid, thereby managing the test taker to perform the task according to the prescribed procedure.

[0214] Meanwhile, once all cognitive function tests are completed, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) automatically displays a test completion message on the screen of the test terminal after the examinee has finished all tests.

[0215] In addition, if the examiner touches the screen multiple times, a test confirmation button appears.

[0216] At this time, the test confirmation page displays the time required for each test and whether the answers are saved in real time, allowing the examiner to check the progress status of the test. If the test result sending fails and a red button is displayed, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) does not proceed with the test of another examinee, reconnects the network, and attempts to send the test result again. Until the test result sending is completed, the examinee's test result is safely stored within the test terminal.

[0217] Next, let's look at step S403, which is as follows.

[0218] FIG. 20 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of calculating scores by cognitive domain and a total score, and FIG. 21 is a screen of a test terminal showing the process of scoring scores by cognitive domain and a total score.

[0219] Looking at FIG. 20, a comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention can calculate scores by cognitive domain and a comprehensive score based on the results of the cognitive function test.

[0220] To this end, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can automatically score the attention test, the temporal orientation test, the frontal lobe function test and the visuospatial test, and the memory test based on the placement position of words among the second memory test.

[0221] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can guide the examinee to be scored manually by an administrator by playing back the examinee's voice recording file stored in the immediate memory test, the delayed recall memory test, and the language ability test, in which the examinee is asked to say a word they remember during the first memory test, the second memory test, and the immediate memory test, in which the examinee is asked to say a word they remember during the second memory test.

[0222] In addition, in one embodiment, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can facilitate scoring by displaying voice recognition results on the examiner scoring screen, or automate scoring using voice recognition results.

[0223] A separate embodiment of the present invention may be applied to scoring or general voice guidance functions.

[0224] In one embodiment according to the present invention, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can receive a language through a test terminal and, in accordance with the selected language, change the guidance text and guidance voice, highlight the corresponding text in the guidance text when the guidance voice is played, adjust the voice speed in several steps such as normal, fast, or slow, adjust the volume of the voice, or adjust the voice type in various ways, such as male, female, child, adult, low tone, high tone, etc., and support functions for various combinations.

[0225] Next, let's look at step S404, which is as follows.

[0226] FIG. 22 is a screen of an examination terminal showing the process of generating and providing a result report based on the calculation results of scores by cognitive domain and the overall score, FIG. 23 is a diagram showing an example of a result report page by page, and FIG. 24 is a diagram showing a report for the examinee and a report for the expert, respectively.

[0227] Referring to FIGS. 22 to 24, a comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention can generate and provide a result report based on the calculation results of scores by cognitive domain and a comprehensive score.

[0228] In this process, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can use a test terminal to present and output the raw score, percentile score, and Z score of the total score on page 1 of the total pages of the test results, and can output a graph of the position of the total score obtained by the test taker within the distribution of the norm group.

[0229] In addition, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) can use a test terminal to present and output percentile scores for each cognitive domain as one or more charts, such as a bar chart and a radial chart, and can present and output raw scores, percentile scores, and Z scores of detailed measurement variables for each test on pages 2 to 3 of the total pages of the test results.

[0230] In addition, as shown in Fig. 24, two types of reports may be provided: a report for the examinee designed to help the examinee easily understand the test results, and a report for experts that includes all detailed test scores.

[0231] In addition, each report can be downloaded as a PDF file via the download button at the top right, and Page 1 presents the raw total score, percentile score, and Z-score, allowing the position of the examinee's total score within the distribution of the norm group to be checked through a graph. Furthermore, the percentile scores of the cognitive domain may be presented as bar charts and radial charts.

[0232] Additionally, on page 2, an interpretation of the test results is provided tailored to the examinee's cognitive function level. On the last page, the raw scores, percentile scores, and Z-scores of the cognitive domain scores may be provided once again.

[0233] Figure 25 is a screen showing the longitudinal analysis results provided based on the examinee's test records.

[0234] Looking at Fig. 25, as shown in Fig. 25(a), the examinee can select a desired date on the test result screen through the test terminal, and if the examinee has a history of taking tests on other dates, they can view past test records by selecting the corresponding date from the list.

[0235] At this time, if multiple tests are selected as in Fig. 25(b), the scores can be checked by date, and as in Fig. 25(c), the scores by test area or total score can be displayed as a graph by date.

[0236] The results of these longitudinal analyses are used as information that can be accessed at any time through the examiner's terminal, in addition to the examinee's test terminal.

[0237] Figure 26 is a diagram showing the screen of an examiner terminal that performs automatic scoring based on voice recognition results.

[0238] Referring to FIG. 26, a comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention can facilitate scoring by displaying voice recognition results on an examiner scoring screen, or automate scoring using voice recognition results.

[0239] For example, as shown in Fig. 25, the result of converting the examinee's voice recording into data may be displayed in the recording content section. For example, sentences such as "Carrot, um, I think there was a fox too, and a deer, and what else, a fountain pen, ah, um, I don't remember well" may be displayed in the recording content section.

[0240] Based on this, the comprehensive cognitive function test solution providing system (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention may perform automatic scoring based on the fact that a word (or keyword) corresponding to the correct answer, such as 'carrot, fox, fountain pen', is identified among them.

[0241] Although the embodiments described above have been described as utilizing aspects of the subject matter currently invented in one or more standalone computer systems, the present invention is not limited thereto and may be implemented in conjunction with any computing environment, such as a network or a distributed computing environment. Furthermore, aspects of the subject matter in the present invention may be implemented in a plurality of processing chips or devices, and storage may be similarly affected across a plurality of devices. Such devices may include PCs, network servers, and portable devices.

[0242] Although the present invention has been described in relation to some embodiments, various modifications and changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention as understood by a person skilled in the art to which the invention pertains. Furthermore, such modifications and changes should be considered to fall within the scope of the claims appended to this specification.
