About this study

The occupational therapist will test the dexterity of both hands once using the Box and Block Test. Their task will be to move as many blocks as possible from one side of the test box to the other side with each hand separately within one minute according to verbal instructions in three consecutive attempts. The testing will be videotaped for the purpose of subsequent evaluation of the data obtained by a computer program. The results obtained from the evaluation of the videotape by the occupational therapist and the computer program will then be analyzed.
