Detailed Description

The main aim of the project is to establish Czech updated manuals for the Nine Hole Peg Test, Purdue Pegboard Test and Box and Block Test to be used in rehabilitation to evaluate upper limb functions, including establishing norms for the Czech healthy population.

The Czech updated manuals for those tests were made by back-translation method and updated for unification of recommended three trials of each subtest administration and interpretation of tested individuals performance.

At least 540 individuals (20-65 years old) will be tested by the updated Czech manuals till the end of 2023 by those three tests. The Czech norms will be established from acquired data.
