Abstract

In this paper is described web environment based on content management system that can integrate several tools and subsystems specialized for psychometric diagnostic, therapy and communication. Environment provides collecting information about users, evaluation cognitive capabilities, interpretation and visualization of test results, database analyzes, and generation of user's profile and their cognitive maps. Adaptive multimedial diagnostics tests integrated in this environment can be used for evaluation of user's cognitive functions. Data mining allows processing the large amount collected information (diagnostic test results and information about users) and it reports about potentially interesting data. Environment provides online platform where patients and field experts (psychologists/therapists) can organize in virtual communities. Advantages of this environment can be seen from perspective of psychologists and persons who are going to be tested. © 2009 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l. - All rights reserved.
