The basic components of a data- and methodbase system useful for both individual diagnosis and (group-study) research in neuropsychology are described. Such a system enables one to organize, access and evaluate large data-sets of behavioural, neuroradiological and neurological information. The most important component of the system, the data- and methodbase management system, is described in some detail. It operates on databases comprised of Aachen Aphasia Test examinations and standardized CT evaluations as well as on methodbases containing various sets of analysis routines for the psychometric evaluation of (individual) aphasia test results and the evaluation and (graphical) presentation of standardized (individual) CT lesions. Although exemplified for AAT scores the techniques and principles employed are applicable to data- and methodbase systems in general.
本文描述了一个对神经心理学的个体诊断和(群体研究)都有用的数据和方法库系统的基本组成部分。这样一个系统能够让人组织、访问和评估行为、神经放射学和神经学信息的大型数据集。该系统最重要的组成部分,即数据和方法库管理系统,将进行较为详细的描述。它基于由亚琛失语症测试检查和标准化CT评估组成的数据库运行,同时也基于包含各种分析程序集的方法库运行,这些分析程序用于对(个体)失语症测试结果进行心理测量评估,以及对标准化(个体)CT病变进行评估和(图形)展示。虽然是以亚琛失语症测试分数为例,但所采用的技术和原则一般适用于数据和方法库系统。
