Computerized system and method for simultaneously representing and recording dynamic judgments

A computerized method of representing and recording judgments of a user in relation to a rating scale, said method comprising:

• displaying multiple concept representations to the user, wherein each of said concept representations represents a concept about which the user is asked to make a judgment;
• displaying at least one rating scale, wherein said rating scale provides a range of possible judgments applicable to said concepts;
• receiving user manipulations of selected concept representations locating said concept representations relative to said rating scale and relative to other concept representations, thereby providing user input ratings of selected concepts;
• displaying said selected concept representations relative to said rating scale and relative to said other concept representations in accordance with said user input ratings;
• and
• recording at least a final location of said concept representations relative to said rating scale to provide a final judgment to be evaluated.

A computerized method of representing and recording judgments and a judgment making process of a user in relation to a physical context, said method comprising:

• displaying at least one physical context representation, wherein said physical context representation represents a physical context in which the user is asked to make judgments by designating locations in said physical context;
• receiving a user input judgment associated with at least one location in said physical context;
• displaying a location representation at said location in said physical context representation;
• continuously recording user input information as the user designates said locations;
• and
• recording each said location representation in said physical context representation to provide a final judgment representation, wherein said user input information and said final judgment representation can be used to evaluate the judgments and the judgment making process of the user.

A computerized method of representing and recording judgments of a user pertaining to sensory systems, said method comprising:

• displaying at least one body representation, wherein said body representation represents at least a portion of the body of the user in which the user is asked to make judgments by designating locations of said sensory symptoms;
• receiving a user input judgment associated with at least one location of a sensory symptom in said body;
• displaying a location representation at said location in said body representation;
• and
• recording said location representations in said body representation to provide a final judgment representation, wherein said final judgment representation can be used to evaluate the judgments of the user.

A computer program product, stored on a storage medium, for representing and recording judgments of a user in relation to a rating scale, said computer program product comprising:

• code for displaying multiple concept representations to the user, wherein each of said concept representations represents a concept about which the user is asked to make a judgment;
• code for displaying at least one rating scale, wherein said rating scale provides a range of possible judgments applicable to said concepts;
• code for receiving user manipulations of selected concept representations locating said concept representations relative to said rating scale and relative to other concept representations, thereby providing user input ratings of selected concepts;
• code for displaying said selected concept representations relative to said rating scale and relative to said other concept representations in accordance with said user input ratings;
• and
• code for recording at least a final location of said concept representations relative to said rating scale to provide a final judgment to be evaluated.
