Zusammenfassung:In establishing his core set of tests, Keith borrowed judiciously from experimental psychology, wisely selecting brief, reliable, and valid measures of episodic memory, attention, and working memory, in his view the key cognitive domains. Keith recognized that attention and visual working memory are both more efficiently and reliably assessed using digital technology rather than with traditional “paper-and-pencil” testing.
