Abstract: A method for knowledge assessment and encouraging learning via the administration, scoring, remediation, and reiteration of a confidence-based assessment (CBA) test. The CBA test comprises a plurality of multiple choice questions directed to categorical topics, and two-dimensional answers by which a subject indicates both their answer and level of confidence category of their answer. The answers include a plurality of full-confidence choices consisting of single-choice answers (A), (B) or (C), a plurality of partial-confidence choices consisting of sets of multiple single-choice answers (A or B), (B or C), (A or C), and an unsure answer. Scoring entails giving maximum points for correct full-confidence answers, partial points for correct partial-confidence answers, no score for not knowing, and a maximum penalty for wrong answers in any category. The answers are compiled and displayed as a knowledge profile to the subject that separates answers into quadrants of doubt, misinformation, unknown and mastery. The CBA test method is re-administering as often as desired, and when taken multiple times a composite knowledge profile is compiled and to the subject to show improvement.

Abstract translation: 通过管理，评分，补救和重申基于信心的评估（CBA）测试来进行知识评估和鼓励学习的方法。 CBA测试包括针对分类主题的多个多项选择题，以及对象表示他们的答案和他们的回答的置信级别的二维答案。 答案包括由单选答案（A），（B）或（C）组成的多个全信心选择，由多个单选答案（A或B）的集合组成的多个部分置信选项， （B或C），（A或C）和不确定的答案。 评分需要给出正确的全信心答案的最大分数，部分积分的正确的部分置信答案，不知道得分，以及任何类别的错误答案的最高罚款。 答案被编译并显示为将答案分为怀疑，错误信息，未知和掌握的象限的主题的知识概况。 CBA测试方法根据需要经常重新管理，并且当多次复制知识简档被编译并且对主题显示改进时。
