SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USING PSYCHOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE PATTERN INFORMATION FOR MATCHING WITH TARGET INFORMATION
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for matching a computer user with textual content, the method comprising:
- calculating, using a processor, adaptive-style map coordinates for the computer user based on a psychological test that measures adaptive style;
calculating, using the processor, textual-content map coordinates based on the textual content; and
calculating, using the processor, a distance between the adaptive-style map coordinates of the computer user and the textual-content map coordinates of the textual content,wherein the psychological test is an eSAIL psychological test or close derivative of the eSAIL psychological test.

Abstract
A computer-implemented system for creating a classification significance pattern for end users, and enabling end users to use their classification significance pattern to conduct custom searches for target information, such as books, other textual content, information about products, services, and jobs, as well as enabling third parties, such as vendors and potential employers, to target their advertisements to groups of users meeting a certain classification. A classification significance pattern is created by having a user take a psychological test, for example, that includes a personality test, a design taste test, a recreation/travel test, a life satisfaction test, an interactive game module, or a career/job test, and having the system automatically score such test and classifying the user based on a defined abstract classification.

10. A system for matching a computer user with textual content, comprising:
-
a computer server node in a network system, the computer server node having a first code mechanism operable to create a psychological classification significance pattern for a user by using a psychological test that measures adaptive style; a data base coupled to the computer server node and including a classification index for the textual content, wherein the classification index is configured for being matched to one or more elements of the psychological classification significance pattern of the user; and a second code mechanism coupled to the first code mechanism and operable to find target data whose classification index matches one or more elements of the psychological classification significance pattern of the user, wherein use of the psychological classification significance pattern is consensual and the user has control of the use of the psychological classification significance pattern when it is in use. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions for matching a user with textual content, the instructions for causing performance of the method comprising:
-
creating a psychological classification significance pattern for the user by using a psychological test that measures adaptive style; creating a classification index for the textual content, wherein the classification index can be matched to one or more elements of the psychological classification significance pattern of the user; and finding target data whose classification index matches one or more elements of the psychological classification significance pattern of the user, wherein use of the psychological classification significance pattern is consensual and the user has control of the use of the psychological classification significance pattern when it is in use. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)
