Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of the Box and Block Test as a measure of dexterity of elderly people: reliability, validity, and norms studies.
TL;DR: The results show that the test-retest reliability is high and the validity of theBBT is shown by significant correlations between the BBT, an upper limb performance measurement and a functional independence measurement, which will help rehabilitation clinicians to differentiate better between real difficulties and those that may be attributed to normal aging.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Purdue Pegboard Test: Normative data for people aged 60 and over
TL;DR: The goals of the study were to verify the test-retest reliability with subjects aged 60 and over without upper limb impairment, and to develop normative data based on a random sample of healthy older community-living individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Normative Data for Grip Strength of Elderly Men and Women
TL;DR: The random recruitment of subjects, the high participation rate in the study, and the comparability of the subjects who agreed to participate and those who refused give this study the high external validity that is essential to any norm study.
Journal Article
Comparison of the Jamar dynamometer and the Martin vigorimeter for grip strength measurements in a healthy elderly population.
TL;DR: Grip strength measured by the Jamar dynamometer is even more dependent on hand anthropometry than measurements with the Martin vigorimeter, which indicates a very high correlation between the two measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and Reliability of an Upper Extremity Function Test for the Elderly: The TEMPA
TL;DR: The TEMPA is a reliable instrument that appears to fill a void in the evaluation of the elderly, and more psychometric studies are required to confirm its validity.
