SUMMARY:

The current stage of development in Neuropsychology presents a promising scenario for integration with Information Technologies (IT), particularly with regard to psychological testing. However, the existing literature remains permeated by debates concerning the equivalence of assessment instruments in their traditional and computerized versions. The present study, empirical in nature and employing a quantitative approach, aimed to investigate the equivalence between the traditional administration and an alternative computerized version of the Rey–Osterrieth Complex Figure Test (ROCFT), using a tablet as technological support. The first study was guided by a systematic literature review intended to map the state of the art regarding equivalence studies between traditional and computerized versions of psychological instruments published between 2014 and 2025. The second study began with a pilot phase for the validation of the alternative computerized version of the ROCFT by expert judges, whose suggestions were incorporated to refine the administration prior to the main study. Data collection involved participants aged between 18 and 60 years, who completed both versions of the instrument as well as a sociodemographic questionnaire. The adopted design allowed for discussion of the potentialities, challenges, and methodological implications associated with the computerization of neuropsychological instruments, contributing to an understanding of contemporary trends in the use of digital technologies in neuropsychological assessment.
