Purdue Pegboard Test
Test of dexterity
The Purdue Pegboard Test is a psychomotor test of manual dexterity and bimanual coordination.[1] The test involves two different abilities: gross movements of arms, hands, and fingers, and fine motor extremity, also called "fingerprint" dexterity.[2] Poor Pegboard performance is a sign of deficits in complex, visually guided, or coordinated movements that are likely mediated by circuits involving the basal ganglia.[3]
