Psychology Test Using HyperCard On The Macintosh

The Department of Clinical Psychology currently use a number of HyperCard programs to carry out tests on subjects. A number of new tests have been proposed for potential conversion into HyperCard programs. The tests
involved in this conversion is Drug Attitude Inventory (DAI) questionnaire and Liverpool University Neuroleptic Side Effect Rating Scale (LUNSERS) questionnaire. Normally these questionnaires using paper to run the test. HyperCard programs have been written to run the test and it required HyperCard version 2.2. For Drug Attitude Inventory (DAI) questionnaire, three stacks and four files have been produced and for Liverpool University Neuroleptic Side Effect Rating Scale (LUNSERS)questionnaire, two stacks and two files have been produced. Each stack has it own function, there is stack to generate the questionnaire, stack to run the test and stack to process the results. LUNSERS questionnaire only has stack to generate the questionnaire and stack to run the test. Stack to process the result will be developed by somebody else. To go from card to card and to answer the test, user only need to click on the appropriate button because most of the operations in these stacks are handle using buttons. Different stack will be used by different user because each stack runs different function. Both the conversion questionnaires have save many tedious work
especially while processing the result from the test.
