CapScore™ Paper and Pencil Testing supports data gathering in the more controlled test environments often associated with higher stakes testing situations. With a test monitor present to deter cheating and to ensure the identity of each person being tested, one or more individual test takers work from a fresh clean test booklet, recording answers on their individual CapScore™ answer form. When the testing session is over the monitor collects all the test booklets and answers forms. The number of simultaneous test takers is determined by client needs and ability to provide appropriate test facilities and monitors. CapScore™ answer forms are returned to Insight Assessment by mail for scanning and scoring. Test results are returned in in electronic format to the client. Working with our specialists, CapScore™ answer forms can be custom designed to include a limited number of client-specific question response fields.

Insight Assessment Online Testing supports both the more controlled testing environments described above and the more open "anytime anywhere" testing often associated with online instruction, continuing education and adult learning programs. Tests can be taken in a computer lab with a test monitor present, or independently over the Internet. In both cases the test-taker's online interface is easy to use, data encrypted and flexible. Tests can be assigned to be taken within any window of time which meets the client's needs. Each test is scored as soon as the test taker submits all of his or her responses to the items on the test. Insight Assessment's web-based interface provides you, the client, with the electronic tools to make assignments of tests to your specific test takers, to manage your test-takers' logins, to monitor testing progress, and to view and to download individual and group test results as they become available. As the client, you can decide whether your test takers will or will not receive their individual results. Online testing provides a greater ability for the client to insert demographic questions or to gather other needed information about your own test takers.  Online test scoring is done electronically and data will be returned electronically.

Comprehensive instructions to assist you in using either online or paper and pencil testing are included in the test manual available in the test's specimen kit.The Specimen Kit and an individualized consultation to help you maximize the effectiveness and efficiency of your testing modality - either paper or online - are both included in our initial client setup package when a new testing client makes an initial purchase of tests.

Insight Assessment Reports and Analytics: Both our online and paper and pencil testing services include our Basic Reporting Service, ensuring you of the accurate calculation of the scores for your individual test takers and your total group of test takers on all the the scales in the testing instruments you elected to assign. We also provide with this basic service the standard descriptive statistical summaries, such as mean, median and standard deviation. Our custom-designed Premium Reporting Service provides many additional powerful analyses and presentation tools.
