title: Computerized scoring and graphing of the Farnsworth-Munsell 100-hue color vision test.
abstract: The Farnsworth-Munsell 100-hue test is a sensitive and accurate test of color discrimination. A major disadvantage of the test is the laborious and time-consuming calculation needed to score the results and plot them on a chart for interpretation. We present a computer program, written in Microsoft's BASIC language, that performs the calculation and reports both the individual color cap error scores (from which the graph is plotted) and the total error score. If used with an IBM personal computer (or compatible) capable of graphics, the program plots a graph in a modified polar coordinate format that can be printed on a dot-matrix printer.
