Methods, systems and apparatuses for matching individuals with behavioral requirements and for managing providers of services to evaluate or increase individuals' behavioral capabilities

The invention comprises of a structural algorithm, processes, apparatuses and systems for evaluating, matching and fostering individuals' behavioral capabilities to the requirements for successful human performance in any role and situation. The invention uses a new algorithm to construct a profile of required ability levels underlying the performance of recognized successful individuals in specific situations. Other individuals are then evaluated only in terms of discrepancies between required ability levels and the levels indicated by their performance of indicators of attainment in each of the required dimensions of ability. Required abilities are selected for each comparison in seven linked types of behavior, each with its own method of measurement. As the measurement methods of the invention are used only to construct comparison gauges of a specific requirement and an individual attainment, there is no need for inferring absolute value or generalizable meaning to any ability measurement. The invention employs a novel algorithm and method to construct multidimensional gauges of the necessary and sufficient behavioral abilities, novel processes to identify individual's attained levels of the required abilities and to match individual's abilities with role-situation requirements, novel processes to evaluate or select intervention strategies for furthering individual's attainment of required abilities and a novel algorithm to identify the level of stress induced by computer presentations. Applications of the invention are anticipated in human resource management, training, education, counseling, therapy, medical, self-help and other settings. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION These objectives are accomplished with an improved process, system and apparatus, all including or related to an algorithm utilizing seven types of behavioral abilities to compare an individual's attained abilities with all the abilities required for any role in any situation.
It has been discovered according to the present invention a process for evaluating an individual's behavioral capabilities as the profile of differences between required and attained capabilities respectively measured on the same scales and thus canceling out inadequacies in their separate measurement and avoiding misuse of their separate interpretations.
It has also been discovered according to the present invention a process for redefining role performance requirements from disparate capability statements to a set of related abilities in a typology of behavioral requirements generalizable to all roles in all situations.
It has also been discovered in the present invention an algorithm for constructing a multidimensional structure of related different types of ability elements, each type distinguished by its method of measurement and its relationship with the other types.
It has also been discovered according to the present invention a process for identifying individual's behavioral capabilities as a display of the profile of the differences between attained and required abilities.
It has also been discovered according to the present invention a process for evaluating interventions targeted at increasing individuals' abilities involving evaluation of the affects of pre-intervention abilities and other pre-intervention conditions.
It also has been discovered according to the present invention a system for matching individuals with the behavioral requirements of particular roles in situations.
It has also been discovered according to the present invention an apparatus for unobtrusively obtaining data on an individual's brain waves associated with specific computer operations thus minimizing the effects of the data collection process on the operator's brain waves
