Abstract
A method for determining mental proficiency level by monitoring point of gaze, pupillary movement, pupillary response, and other parameters in a subject performing a task, collecting the data in a database, analyzing the data in the database, and assigning the subject to a score indicating the subject'"'"'s particular mental proficiency level in real time.

19. A method comprising:
-
obtaining eye tracking data characterizing pupil dilation and point of gaze for each eye of an individual;
calculating metrics based on the data comprising;
index of cognitive activity, blink rate, rate of pupil movement, rate of change of point of gaze, and divergence between the point of gaze for each eye;
associating the metrics with one or more of at least two mental proficiency levels; and
identifying the associated predefined mental proficiency level.

20. A method comprising:
-
obtaining eye tracking data characterizing pupil dilation and point of gaze for an individual;
associating the eye tracking data with one or more of a plurality of predefined mental proficiency levels, the predefined mental proficiency levels being generated by providing a setting characterized by one or more mental proficiency levels, subjecting a plurality of test individuals engaged in a task to the setting, obtaining eye tracking data from the test individuals, performing calculations on the eye tracking data, and modeling the eye tracking data to describe the one or more mental proficiency levels; and
identifying the associated predefined mental proficiency level.

21. A method comprising:
-
obtaining eye tracking data characterizing pupil dilation and point of gaze for an individual;
subjecting the eye tracking data to an analysis comprising one or more of;
calculating an Index of Cognitive Activity (ICA);
calculating a blink rate;
calculating a movement of the pupil in a horizontal and in a vertical plane; and
calculating a divergence of the horizontal location of the pupil;
associating the analyzed eye tracking data with one or more of a plurality of predefined mental proficiency levels; and
identifying the associated predefined mental proficiency level.
