The aim of the project is to verify the usability of a computer program for automatic evaluation of the Box and Block Test performed by seniors aged 65 and over and to determine whether it is more advantageous to use it in clinical practice compared to the usual manual evaluation of the Box and Block Test by an occupational therapist.
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.
