Abstract: The invention discloses a computer-implemented system and method for pictorial-based non-verbal assessment of emotional relationship perception in children. The system enables structured presentation of pictorial and emoji-based emotional stimuli and facilitates real-time acquisition of emotional responses through a touch-based interface with high-frequency input detection and low- latency response capture. The system quantifies emotional perception by assigning predefined emotional weights to selected stimuli and computing Emotional Relationship Quantification Scores (ERQS), thereby converting subjective responses into measurable numerical metrics. The system further performs relational emotional analysis by comparing quantified scores across multiple relational categories to identify patterns of emotional consistency, imbalance, and conflict. The system supports scalable multi-session operation with optimized computational performance, providing a rapid, automated, and structured solution for non-verbal emotional assessment in children.
