Q-interactive App Store

[Lauro Pericles]

Qinteractive is a comprehensive digital system that can be used to administer and score tests traditionally given by an examiner in one-on-one settings. The Q-interactive library includes WISC-V, WAIS-IV, CELF-5, and a host of other tests.

This 3-hour session will provide an overview of the components essential to Q-interactive, including the Q-interactive Assess app and the Q-interactive website (qiactive.com). iPad settings will be reviewed to ensure that stimuli are displayed in a standardized manner. Participants will learn about the overall functionality of Q-interactive and the workflow process and learn how to create examinee profiles, assign and customize batteries within the system, sync to the Q-interactive Assess app, utilize built-in tools to administer assessments, and generate score reports. Participants will also learn how to access digital manuals and where to go for additional support. Price includes up to 30 people per session.

Training orders will be processed within 5-7 business days of order placement. A training consultant will contact you to coordinate your training. Training dates are scheduled no earlier than 5 weeks from order placement.

Price includes up to 30 people per session. This 1-hour Q&A session supports participants who have attended a previous session or are familiar with the platform. A Pearson expert will meet with participants to address follow-up questions and support specific assessment-related needs. To use the hour efficiently, participants may submit questions in advance. Q&A sessions do not include handouts or slides.

Q-interactive pricing consists of an annual license for each user and a per-subtest usage charge. Usage can be paid for using a pay-as-you-go method in which you are billed monthly, or a prepay method in which you estimate the total subtests for a license year and pay up front. Some additional materials are needed for administration (e.g., blocks, response booklets, etc.). When you purchase your first license, we provide you with a free starter kit that contains the materials for the tests you request access to.

Q-interactive requires an annual license, good for one year from the date of purchase, for users to gain access to the system. The annual fee is based on the number of tests you want access to and the number of users in your organization. You will need to purchase one license for each user that will administer assessments on the system.

Usage can be paid for using a pay-as-you-go method in which you are billed monthly, or a prepay model in which you estimate the total number of subtests you will give during the license year and pay up front for them. Prepay users are able to take advantage of volume discounting.

Using Central, the Q-interactive secure web portal, administrators create client profiles and manage the test library. To create an assessment, administrators assign a test battery to a client. That assessment is then sent to the Assess app, where testing takes place.

Assessments are administered using two iPads: one for you and for your client. The administrator uses the first iPad to score responses and control visual stimuli. The client uses the second iPad to view and respond to stimuli. Real-time scoring enables administrators to adapt the assessment session to a client's needs on the spot.

Once assessments are complete, data is synced back to Central, the administrative hub. From there, administrators have permanent access to scores, examinee responses, and any notes taken during the assessment. Score reports can also be viewed and saved for later access.

Q-interactive offers an array of subtests for assessing ability, achievement, executive function, speech and language, memory, and neuropsychology. A starter kit is included with your initial Q-interactive license purchase. This kit includes the necessary materials needed to administer each test.

Large organizations may need to configure specific aspects of their network environment so that the Assess application can share information between the client and practitioner devices. Please reference the network requirements document below for more information.

Keeping your data and your client's information safeguarded is our top priority. Security is built into Q-interactive through technical, administrative, and even physical safeguards. Data stored on Q-interactive complies with the standards established in the HIPAA Security Regulations and is in accordance with the HITECH Act applicable to Business Associates.

If you are a current Pearson customer, you will not need to complete a Pearson Qualification Form. When your Q-interactive account is set up, Pearson Customer Service will make sure your existing qualification level is applied to the Q-interactive account. This will permit you to access all digital assessments and subtests within Q-interactive that are within your qualification level.

The cost of Q-interactive is a combination of an annual license fee and subtest usage. You can be billed monthly for your usage on a pay-as-you-go basis, or you can pre-pay for your usage when you purchase your license. Annual licenses and pre-paid usages are subject to volume discounts.

You are required to purchase a license for each user on your Q-interactive account that will be administering tests on the system. Admins and admin assistants who do not see clients do not have to pay for a license. To calculate your total price, determine the type of license you want and the total number of users who require that license. Add that to the number of usages you anticipate needing for the year to obtain your total price.

Yes, any unused subtests can be rolled over to the next year as long as you renew your license. If a license has not been renewed within 2 years of expiring, the additional subtests that were associated with it will expire as well.

Yes, Q-interactive can be used in graduate training programs for $150. This provides the instructor and students with unlimited access to Q-interactive for the year. This special pricing is only available for coursework-based practice, not clinical use. Find the classroom order form here.

The clinician's device must initially be connected to the Internet so batteries you prepared for your client in Q-interactive Central can be synched and downloaded. Once this synching has occurred, the iPads can be used off-line without Internet connectivity. Data gathered during an offline assessment will be saved locally (on the device) until it is reconnected to the Internet and synched back with Q-interactive Central. Be sure to use a secure Internet connection when using Q-interactive.

If you're in an environment with secure Wi-Fi connectivity, Q-interactive can stay connected to the Internet and will save your data both locally and to Q-interactive Central throughout the administration.

Test administration on Q-interactive takes place via two iPads that "talk" to each other via a Bluetooth connection. You use one to administer instructions, record and score responses, take notes, and control visual stimuli. Your client uses the other to view and respond to stimuli. Therefore, to use Q-interactive the following hardware is required:

Finally, while a personal computer with access to the Internet through a standard browser is not strictly necessary to use Q-interactive, it can be helpful when creating assessment sessions, ordering subtests, and exporting data.

See our technical requirements page for a list of supported hardware and Internet browsers. As new digital devices become available, Pearson will test them to ensure compatibility with Q-interactive and update our requirements accordingly.

Yes, you may use your own iPad as long as it meets our minimum requirements. Once you have purchased your Q-interactive license you may download the free Q-interactive Assess app from the App Store on to your iPads and use it along with all of your other applications.

Our early piloting indicated that desktop and laptop computers interfered with clinician/client rapport. Using tablets allows us to maintain this clinical interaction and helps ensure the equivalence of paper and digital scores.

See our technical requirements page for a full listing of supported and recommended devices. We recommend that you purchase the newest iPad version you can afford, as applications typically perform better on newer devices.

The iPad Mini and iPad Pro can be used as practitioner devices only. Our equivalence studies were conducted using a standard iPad as the client device. Using the Mini or the Pro as a client device would change the size of the stimuli, and we have not evaluated whether this would change our equivalence study results. The 9.7 inch iPad Pro can be used as a client device because it is the same size as the standard iPad models.
