Test with a stopwatch and the dmS-NHPT with an Autotimer. 80 Participants were
included and randomized into two groups. The Group A was tested from Evaluator
I with the dmS-NHPT, with an Autotimer (digital version of modified
standardized Nine hole peg test), and then with tNHPT with stop watch
(traditional Nine Hole peg test) on the same day. Group B was tested by
Evaluator II.10 days after first testing, the second testing is done with the
Evaluators being reversed. Dexterity assessment for healthy individuals assessed and compared with the standard version of Nine Hole Peg Test. The Reliability and Validity of New Version is evaluated. |
