The test consisted of 7 subtests: digit discrimination, mental arithmetic, Chinese character rotation, digit working memory, recognition of dual words, recognition of tri-digits and recognition of meaningless figure, and its software was programmed by using C language. For standardization of the test and obtaining the representative normal data, a sample with 2,443 subjects was taken in 6 administrative areas in China. The scope of application of the test were children and adults of 10 to 90 years of age with over 4 years of education. The two conversion tables of the scores for each age group were constructed for students and adults. All of the distinctiveness, the reliability, the internal identity and the validity for the test were good.
