Abstract:
The concurrent validity of the Kaufman Hand Movement Test as a measure of limb apraxia was investigated. For 23 adult aphasic subjects, a Pearson r of 0.84 was obtained between scores on this test and on the Limb Apraxia Test, a battery of tasks often used in the assessment of limb apraxia. The Kaufman test is a shorter and simpler test to administer than the Limb Apraxia Test. The concurrent validity of the Kaufman test encourages its use in the assessment of limb apraxia.
