Abstract:
A multiple aptitude testing device for electronically evaluating an examinee's capacity or aptitude toward performing various vocational tasks. The device includes a test station which affords five general types of examinations, namely, objective question and answer tests, a manual dexterity test, a finger dexterity test, a hand/eye coordination test, and a hand/eye/foot coordination test. The question and answer examinations entail interchangable overlays which contain questions and possible answers such that the examinee selects what he deems is the correct answer by contacting an appropriate sensor on the housing with an electrically conductive answer probe. The other four examinations entail counters for electronically measuring the number of times the examinee is able to perform a manipulative task during a fixed period of time. The device provides an electronic comparator for automatically grading the examinations and displaying or printing a test score associated with each of said tests. The device 20 is further designed to generally recognize which test is being conducted based on which of the various attachments or overlays are connected to the device.
