OK I'll bite

I don't do alot of these, but I scored Subject A as 4 out of 10 (NRI) and Subject B as 6 out of 10 (RI)

R2 seems to have a lot of salience to both subjects. I would be inclined to shuffle the questions and run them again making sure that R2 ended up as question #1. I also prefer having the subject repeat the key-word rather than yes or no.

You had calipers, I used a netbook with an 8" screen what score did you get?

As a matter of fact if the manufacturers are reading this. How about the ability to edit the answer field in your question editor to include a one or two word answer other than "Yes or No" so that the word can be inserted on the chart at point of answer during the exam.This would be helpful, not only for the CIT but also when asking the examinee to respond with the last word of the question to combat dissociative countermeasures.

EBV,

Is that your final answer. (This is for the washer-dryer combination.)

The subject answered each question by repeating the last word.

There was a correct call at the time of the demonstration.

We don't need no stinkin' calipers...

We hand scored it to a correct decision on a digital projector at the time.

Here are some computer scores.

Subject A.

Subject B.

Lets's look at the "Total" board.
Subject A. Me- No Reaction Indicated/You- Not Significant

Subject B. Me- Reaction Indicated/You-Significant Reactions.

So, we made the same call, Does My washer- dryer combination come in Harvest Gold?

Your computer scoring looks great but to quote Ersatz-General Vernon Pinkley, " They're very pretty, Colonel. Very pretty. But, can they fight?"

See what I mean about your chart notations not accurately reflecting what the examinee said in response to the questions? What would Q.C. say?

I can't imagine that this would be difficult to fix, at least on a Limestone.
