Solution Overview

Problem

Current cognitive tests lack scientifically compiled stimulus information, making it difficult to objectively evaluate psychological quality, are not suitable for visually impaired or hearing-impaired individuals, and have limited application in assessing long-term stable interests and real personality characteristics.

Innovation Solution

A stimulus information compiling method that selects and analyzes stimulus information following a statistics-normal distribution, dynamically adjusts test sequences based on physiological and psychological states, and includes auditory, visual, and tactile stimuli to create a database suitable for various populations, with lie detection and guiding stimuli to ensure accurate results.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If stimulus information is selected based on general questionnaire methods, then the test can be administered easily, but the stimulus information lacks scientificity and cannot objectively evaluate psychological quality

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of test administrationVSAvoidobjectivity of psychological evaluation
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms stimulus information selection from subjective questionnaire-based methods to objective statistical parameter-based selection. Stimulus information is selected based on whether its test results follow normal distribution and meet validity thresholds (e.g., validity ≥ 0.4), converting qualitative selection into quantitative parameter control that ensures both ease of administration and measurement precision

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements feedback mechanisms where test results are continuously analyzed to determine if they follow normal distribution. Stimulus information that fails to meet statistical criteria is identified and replaced, creating a self-correcting system that maintains scientific rigor while preserving ease of administration through automated statistical validation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Device complexity

If only visual stimulus information is provided, then the test system is simple to implement, but it is not suitable for visually impaired or hearing-impaired individuals

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesimplicity of test systemVSAvoidsuitability for diverse populations
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent makes the test system universal by incorporating multiple stimulus information types (visual, auditory, tactile) that can be selected based on the test subject's needs. The same test framework accommodates different sensory modalities, allowing the system to serve visually impaired, hearing-impaired, and able-bodied individuals without requiring separate test systems

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces dynamic adaptability where the type of stimulus information presented is adjusted based on the test subject's characteristics. The system can dynamically switch between visual, auditory, and tactile stimuli, transforming a static single-modality system into a flexible multi-modality system that adapts to diverse population needs

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Loss of time

If stimulus information is selected without statistical validation, then the test compilation is quick and simple, but the test results cannot reliably assess long-term stable interests and personality characteristics

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetime for test compilationVSAvoidaccuracy of personality assessment
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary statistical validation of stimulus information before it is used in tests. Stimulus information undergoes pre-testing to determine if its results follow normal distribution and meet validity thresholds. This preliminary action ensures that only scientifically valid stimulus information enters the test database, guaranteeing reliability while maintaining efficiency through automated statistical screening

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual, time-consuming test compilation methods with automated statistical analysis systems. Computer algorithms automatically analyze whether test results follow normal distribution and calculate validity coefficients, substituting mechanical manual review with efficient computational validation that maintains high reliability while reducing time investment

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

AI summary

The present invention relates to a stimulus information compiling method for tests, characterized in that, the stimulus information compiling method comprises the following steps: selecting and using stimulus information which follows a statistics-normal distribution and is analyzed and measured by validity to form a stimulus information database (Q); reasonably setting at least one stimulus information to be a test including at least one test sequence, for a subject to make a selection according to his or her personal interests; comparing a test score of the subject with that of a valid sample person in a normal distribution model, thereby confirming the distribution of the subject in each cognitive dimension. The present invention compares a test score of the subject with that of a valid sample person in a normal distribution model, thereby confirming the test result of the subject.
