An automated version of the Digit Symbol Substitution Test [DSST] is described that employs a relatively inexpensive, commercially available microcomputer to present and score the task. Advantages of the automated DSST include the following: objective scoring of both speed and accurary of test performance; printed copies of test scores; convenient admininstration under standardized test conditions; and the capacity for repeated assessment of an individual''s performance over time. Task performance data for individual subjects following doses of pentobarbital are presented; these data illustrate both the stability of task performance under constant conditions and the within-subject sensitivity of task performance to experimental manipulations.
