Primary Objective:
To determine test-re-test reliability of the virtual planning test (VIP), an executive functioning test of planning and organization, in a group of healthy young adults as a pre-cursor to determining the appropriateness of using the VIP with individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Research Design:
Single-group repeated measures design.
Methods And Procedures:
Seventy-five healthy university students were administered the VIP and the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (HVLT-R) twice, with 6-8 weeks between each subject's two test sessions.
Main Outcomes And Results:
VIP test-re-test reliability ranged from 0.194-0.489.
Conclusions:
Knowing how well a healthy young adult performs the first time taking the VIP predicts little about how well that adult will perform the second time. However, given limitations of other tests of planning and organization and potential clinical benefits of the VIP, research of the test with individuals with TBI is warranted.

Reliability and Validity
Virtual Work
In static equilibrium, a body can experience an imaginary or virtual movement, such as displacement or rotation. The virtual work done by a force is equal to the dot product of force and virtual displacement in the direction of the force. When it comes to virtually rotating a...
Sampling Plans
Random sampling is a method where each member of the population has an equal chance of being selected for the sample. It involves selecting individuals randomly, often using random number generators or lottery-type methods. For example, when analyzing the properties of a...
