A test is administered using a device responsive to touch for measuring the saccadic eye movement of an individual that has suffered some sort of trauma (impact or shaking) to the head, and comparing this measurement (post-trauma measurement or post-trauma CQ score) with a previous measurement taken prior to the impact (baseline measurement or baseline CQ score). The comparison yields a value test performance value resulting in a conclusion that the individual may be suffering from a concussion or that the individual is not in a concussive state. The test's accuracy is enhanced by (1) performing periodic baseline readings which are updated as the individual advances with age, (2) the near real-time of the post-trauma measurement in relation to when the trauma occurred, and (3) the automatic determination and transmission of objective test results resulting from an electronic touch screen system which can be transmitted to a networked physician.
