ABSTRACT

The scientific investigation of developmental neurorehabilitation has been negatively impacted by a lack of outcome measures sensitive to interventional effect, and is currently in need of assessment measures that can be used during social distancing protocols. Here we report on the usability and feasibility from a pilot test of a novel assessment methodology. This preliminary data demonstrate the usability and feasibility of this assessment system, suggests that it is sensitive to change, and supports the further development and testing of this assessment. The assessment methodology, here presented, generates a percent change score based on the metric measurement of individualized goals before and after intervention, thereby facilitating comparisons between groups and across goals. Moreover, it can be conducted remotely and introduces the novel element of goal appropriacy assessment such that goal selection, as well as goal attainment, are assessed via metric measurement.
