Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a mental work test sheet using graphical elements. This mental work test form is used as a means to judge human intelligence, especially information processing speed.

[Prior Art] As a conventionally used mental work test paper, the so-called LeCleverin test paper is known. The Kraepelin test paper is a sheet of paper on which predetermined numbers are arranged horizontally, and a similar arrangement of numbers arranged in a predetermined row vertically. The test method using this paper is to add two numbers adjacent to each other and write the last digit of the total number in the lower middle part of the two numbers.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The conventional Kraepelin test paper has numbers arranged in an array, and it is necessary to add two adjacent numbers. In some cases, it may not be possible to target younger age groups such as infants.

Furthermore, the arrangement of numbers has little aesthetic effect and is bland, and is not necessarily easy to read.

Furthermore, in order to determine whether the last digit of the added number is correct or incorrect, it is necessary to match the number itself with the correct answer, which is a difficult task and also difficult to process mechanically.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a mental work desk 1 sheet that is easy to read, interesting, usable even by young age groups, and extremely easy to judge whether it is correct or incorrect.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The mental work test paper of the present invention includes a paper and two or more types of paper arranged on the paper and arranged in a certain direction.
It has the above graphical elements, and is characterized in that when the graphical elements are compared with each other, a superior or discriminative result is produced in one of the graphical elements.

= 3 - The quality, size, thickness, shape, color, etc. of the above-mentioned paper are not particularly limited. This paper can be used by those who wish to take the mental work test, and the graphic elements arranged on the paper can be identified by the person using the paper. As this paper, a commonly used paper sheet can be used, and when the test results are mechanically determined and tabulated, a precise and relatively thick paper that can be mechanically searched can also be used.

A feature of the present invention is that predetermined graphic elements are arranged on the paper.

The graphical elements may be anything that can produce a superior or discriminative result when compared with each other. Here, the superior result is, for example, a win or a loss.

Examples of this case include the three types used in rock-paper-scissors: goo, scissors, and par, and the three types of snakes, frogs, and slugs. In the present invention, it is preferable to use graphical elements that express these clearly and concisely.

Goo means a graphical element of a clenched fist, and snake etc. means a graphical element representing a snake or the like. In addition, discriminative results are somewhat (or in the case of three types, it may be many, medium, or small),
Large and small (or large, medium, small), high and low (or high, medium, low), long and short (or long, medium, short), strong and weak (or strong, medium, weak), hard and soft (or hard, medium, soft), etc. Refers to cases in which one element of the two can be distinguished. Examples of these cases include the number of dice, the height of Mt. Fuji and other mountains, and the strength of animals such as lions, dogs, and rabbits.

There are two or more types of graphical elements. The number of these types is variously selected depending on the purpose and use. Usually, there are 2 to 4 types. The reason why there are 2 to 4 types is because if there are 5 or more types, the relationship between each graphic element will become complicated and it will be troublesome for the person taking the test.

However, it is of course applicable if you want to evaluate this complexity. Among these, three types are particularly preferable. This is because it has a good balance between simplicity and complexity.

In the case of three or more of these types, it is preferable that they have superior or distinguishing effects from each other.

No matter how you arrange it, superior results etc. will occur =
5-. That is, if there are three types, it is preferable to select graphic elements that have a triangular relationship, and if there are four types, it is preferable to select graphic elements that have a mutual relationship with each other. Speaking of this triangular relationship, among the above examples of graphical elements, for example (a) the case of goo, scissors, and bar, (b) the case of snake, frog, and slug, (c) the case of mouse, storehouse, and wind, and (ni) ) may be a fox, a hunter's wife, or a hunter.

In (b), snake〉frog〉slug〉snake (here〉〉 indicates that the thing on the left side is superior to the thing on the right side.

) In (c), there is a dominant relationship between the mouse, storehouse, wind, and mouse, and in (d), there is a dominant relationship between the fox, the hunter's wife, and the hunter and the fox.

Furthermore, the number of graphical elements in a column is determined in consideration of ease of evaluating the appropriate thinking ability and fatigue level of the test taker and an appropriate paper size. The number is preferably 20 to 30. This is because the evaluation etc. can be done appropriately. Depending on the purpose, the number may of course be less than 20 or more than 30, but generally it is 100 or less.

This mental work test sheet has an answer column consisting of two combined squares located at the lower midpoint of two adjacent graphic elements, and each line connecting the answer column and each of the above graphic elements. be able to. Each graphic element corresponds to each square depending on the overall connection arrangement state of these graphic elements, each square, and each line.

Further, the sheet for this mental work test 1 may be provided with a correct answer result display column for displaying the correct answer results for each column. This column can be placed anywhere on this test sheet, but from a functional or aesthetic point of view it is preferable to place it on the right or bottom side; usually, the former is arranged vertically, and the latter horizontally. It becomes an array.

[Example] The present invention will be explained below using specific examples.

A partial plan view of the mental work test sheet of this example is shown in FIG. This mental work test paper consists of paper 1 and paper 1.
It consists of a plurality of predetermined graphical elements 2 arranged above, an answer field 3, a line 4, a correct answer result display field 5, an answer start location indicator 96, an explanatory text 7, and an example 8.

−7= ” - The writing paper is A3 size white general paper.

As shown in the figure, the graphic elements 2 are of three types used in rock-paper-scissors, so-called goo 2a, scissors 2b, and par 2C. If these shapes are compared with each other, one will win and the other will lose. Twenty-five of these graphical elements were randomly arranged in the horizontal direction in such a manner that identical graphical elements were not adjacent to each other. If adjacent comrades are the same graphic element, there will be no chance of winning or losing, but with the above arrangement, one will always win and the other will lose. In addition, 12 columns of 25 different arrays were arranged in the vertical direction.

The answer column 3 consists of two squares that are combined at the lower intermediate portion of two adjacent graphic elements, and is arranged between the rows of each graphic element. The squares on the left side of the mouth correspond to the graphic elements on the left side, and the squares on the right side correspond to the graphic elements on the right side.
This is for writing an O mark in the square corresponding to the winning one among the corresponding graphic elements. In this case, it is not necessary to use a circle mark, but any mark that can express the intention, such as a J mark, may be used. It is also possible to write an X mark or the like in the square corresponding to the graphic element that loses the most.

The line 4 connects the answer column and each of the graphical elements, and if two adjacent graphical elements are considered as a set, the line 4 consists of two lines, one for each. And if we put these two lines together, rV
It has a J shape, and the lower point of rVJ is connected to the middle part of the upper line in the answer column 3 above. The correct answer result display column 5 is located at the right end side of the sheet 1, and is configured such that the number of correct answers in each column and the total number of correct answers are displayed in the lowest column.

The answer start point indication mark 6 has the sentence "Start here" written on an arrow and is placed to the left of the left-most graphical element in the first column. Furthermore, on the upper left side of the first column, there is a message that says, ``Please mark 0 for the person who is winning at rock, paper, scissors.

”, and example 8 is placed on the right side of the explanatory sentence 7.

The method for using the above mental work test paper is described below. This mental work test sheet provides the task of answering which of the two horizontally adjacent graphical elements is winning in Rock, Paper, Scissors, based on the overall figure displayed on it. It can be said that This method uses graphical elements to make a person perform a predetermined task within a certain amount of time, evaluate the amount of task processing, accuracy, fatigue level, etc., and test the information processing ability, aptitude, etc. It is something to do. First, before conducting the test, the students are instructed to ``go as fast as possible and make as few mistakes as possible, mark the winner with an O, and continue until they are told to stop.'' Then, before the test, practice the example problems for about 3 minutes.

First, on the mental work test sheet that was distributed to you, at the signal ``Start,'' begin your answers from the left end of the first column. Then, write an O mark in the square in the answer column that corresponds to the winning one of the two adjacent graphic elements, and answer the questions while moving to the right one after another. The time required for this line is set to 20 seconds, and the test moves to the next line with the signal ``Yes, change lines.'' The test ends when all 10 lines are completed. It is also possible to run multiple test forms if necessary. Also, prepare 2 to 3 sheets of this paper, and first,
Perform 15 rows, then take a break for a specified time and repeat 10 to 15 rows.
It is also possible to evaluate recovery from fatigue after a break by performing the exercise in two blocks, that is, by dividing it into two blocks. Furthermore, if the number of vertical columns in one sheet of paper is 30 to 40, it is possible to evaluate fatigue recovery and the like using one sheet of paper.

This test result is determined at once as correct or incorrect using a so-called correct/incorrect discrimination table, and the number of correct answers is entered in the correct answer result display column at the far right, and the total sum of these is entered in the bottom column. In this correct/incorrect identification table, only the position of the correct answer in each answer column is hollowed out, and if the hollowed out position and the circle mark match, the answer is correct, and if they do not match, it is an incorrect answer. It can be counted immediately.

The mental work test sheet of this embodiment has graphic elements of goo, scissors, and par. Therefore, anyone can find it very easy to read and find it interesting, and even young children who cannot add numbers can perform this rock-paper-scissors test.

Note that the present invention is not limited to what is shown in the above-mentioned specific examples, but can be variously modified within the scope of the present invention depending on the purpose and use.

That is, in this mental work test sheet, the answer column corresponding to each graphical element may be located above the graphical element,
Each line may be connected to the middle part of the F line of each square, as shown in Figure 2, or each square may be separated into two rectangular shapes (round, oval, etc.) as shown in Figure 3. shape, etc.).

In addition, this answer column has a structure in which two squares that are combined are arranged alternately above or below two adjacent graphic elements, and a mark, etc., is written in the square corresponding to the winning graphic element. You can also. Also, there is no need to provide a special answer column for these, and it is also possible to surround the shape that indicates a win, etc. with an O mark, or write an O below the shape. In this case, it will be double boxed or double nine.

Furthermore, the explanatory text and examples as in the above embodiments may be omitted.

Further, as in the above embodiment, it is also possible to implement a work restriction method or the like in which the time required to process the task for each line is recorded without imposing a time limit.

In addition, - the number of graphical elements per column, the number of vertical columns, the size of graphical elements, - the time limit per column, the selection of the type of graphical elements, etc. are determined based on the target age group, differences in ability, and target fatigue. Various choices are made, taking into account factors such as the tumor and the level of brain use.

In addition, as shown in Fig. 4, the above-mentioned graphical elements are arranged on a card, such as a learning card, a toy card, or a learning picture book.
Furthermore, it can also be used as a rice cake of the gods or the like decorated with the above-mentioned graphical elements. All of the above can be used as this graphic element, but for example, in the case of goo, scissors, and par, it can be used to aim for the effect of a mental work test, and the number of the dice can be used to In the case of discrimination, it can be aimed at the educational effect of number concepts. Furthermore, by using graphic elements that apply the height of mountains and the relationship between natural enemies of animals and plants, it is possible to aim for educational effects in social studies or science.

Furthermore, by arranging a large number of these graphical elements, it can be executed repeatedly, ensuring its educational effect, and by arranging many types of graphical elements together on one card, etc., various effects can be obtained at the same time with one card, etc. can.

Further, for example, the combination pattern of each graphical element shown in the above embodiment and shown in FIG. . In this case, if many terminals are used, many people can execute the same pattern at the same time. In these cases, machine processing is easy so that the correct answer rate can be immediately determined.

[Effects of the Invention] The mental work test paper of the present invention includes a paper and two or more types of paper arranged on the paper and arranged in a certain direction.
1:J, and the above graphical elements, and is characterized in that when the graphical elements are compared with each other, a superior or discriminative result occurs on one side.

Therefore, compared to the conventional method of adding numbers, this mental work test sheet is much easier to read, and because it uses graphical elements each having a meaning (shape), it is more interesting and useful for students who cannot add numbers. It can also be used by young children of all ages.

In addition, the correctness of this mental work test sheet can be marked with a circle, etc., and there is no need to distinguish between numbers, so even if it is done manually, it will be exactly 1.
can be carried out in an extremely short time and with high precision, and even when mechanical processing is desired, it is sufficient to read a simple mark such as an O mark, so mechanical processing is extremely easy. In other words, this mental work test paper is highly accurate, quick, and extremely useful as it is suitable for large-scale mechanical processing.

Furthermore, according to the intelligence test method using this mental work test form, it is simple and accurate for everyone from young age groups to adults, by selecting the graphical elements etc. to be used according to the purpose.
You can evaluate each person's intelligence.
