Motor Screening Task (MOT)

Overview

The Motor Screening Task is typically administered at the beginning of a battery, and serves as a simple introduction to the touch screen for the participant. If a participant is unable to comply with the simple requirements of this task it is unlikely that they will be able to complete other tasks successfully. This task therefore screens for visual, movement and comprehension difficulties.

Administration Time

Around 2 minutes.

Task

Participants must touch the flashing cross which is shown in different locations on the screen.

Outcome Measures

This test has two outcome measures which measure the participant's speed of response and the accuracy of the participant's pointing.

Test

Two modes are available – clinical and high visibility. In high visibility the crosses are drawn using thicker lines and are easier to see.
