A system for filtering results from tests that include reaction time as part of the test results includes an input device that receives respondent input in response to queries. A task engine is associated with the input device and the task engine presents the queries and receives the respondent's input to the queries, and associates a reaction input time for each of the respondent's inputs. A results database receives the respondent's input and the associated reaction input time. At least one filter is associated with the task engine which compensates for artifacts that adversely affect the associated reaction input time.

A method for managing engagement and presentation content of an electronic document involves providing container metadata identifying engagement containers within the electronic document, providing engagement data linked to the engagement containers, the engagement data comprising parameters of an engagement based on the segments of content in the linked engagement containers, executing a procedure to traverse engagement containers identified in the container metadata. The procedure includes accepting, based on user input, data responsive to the engagement, and assigning a score for the current engagement container based on the received data and the parameters defined in the engagement metadata.

A method of displaying text of an electronic document on a screen of an information terminal is proposed. The method includes: selecting a specific electronic document by a user; assigning new tags to all text of a corresponding electronic document selected by the user in units of words or letters so as to objectify the text; designating one page of text displayed on a screen of the information terminal by calculating a last word or a last letter at the bottom of that screen that may be displayed on a screen of the information terminal to the extent of not infringing the copyright of the electronic document; and selecting and performing a sequential display mode, a sequential disappearance mode, and an emphasis part designation mode, thereby allowing rapid reading training and enabling quicker review/revision of the parts that have already been studied and understood by a learner.

A system and method on a computer of more efficient, directional reversing reading format that may have directional guides is shown. The reader's eyes can smoothly and efficiently drop down to the next line, and then read content, as the eyes reverse naturally to the beginning direction. There also may be directional prompts to aid in the smooth flow of reading each line.

A neuroscientific method to train optimized reading skills proficiency customized to the needs of each participating student is disclosed. The novel training method causes a creation of optimized specific to task neural pathways and reinforcement of these optimized neural pathways through repetition of the neuroscientific method.

A method includes detecting an eye movement of a reader during a reading of presented text; determining, based on whether an eye movement is detected, whether the reader is looking at the presented text; pausing a presentation of the presented text if it is determined that the reader is not looking at the presented text; and resuming, if the presentation of the text is paused, the presentation of the presented text.
