A method of distributing documents includes the step of displaying the documents on a web site. Responses to the documents are accepted on the web site. After the responses have been accepted, they are processed into a report and the report is returned to an interested party. It is to be understood that the surveys or other forms to be completed by users could be filled out on paper manually and the results could then be entered into a computer and sent to the web site. The reports could be electronically transmitted, and/or hard copies sent via mail, overnight, or through other modes.

Target Training International, in cooperation with BrainMaster and their Avatar software, have for the first time turned the soft science of personal assessment into a hard science by showing not just what people say is their self reported ipsative response, but validating their answers with corresponding brain activity. This unique approach exposes both qualitative and quantitative asymmetry of the prefrontal cortex activity, thus exposing the underlying approach-withdrawal motivational system of decision-making.
