Özet: Background. The parallel development of the psychometric assessments and the computer technologies determined a big revolution regarding the construction and the application of psychological and educational tests. Purpose of the study: This report describes a computerized system that allows researchers to creating, applying, and tabulating surveys and paper instruments in an automatized way. Sources of evidence: Many studies describe the use of this tool, highlighting its main characteristics. Main argument. This system can be considered a useful tool, since it permits to input data with higher precision and no need for previous codifications. Further, it allows researchers to know the latency period from the answer to each and every item. Conclusions. The prospects about new versions of the system stress on: extending the number of measured topics; creating automatic corrections systems; managing data via internet; and selecting the most valid items to measure each matter or specific groups of persons.
