GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Please document each task and/or give instructions as written. When scoring, please record the lowest
response category that applies for each item.

In most items, the subject is asked to maintain a given position for a specific time. Progressively more
points are deducted if:
 the time or distance requirements are not met
 the subject’s performance warrants supervision
 the subject touches an external support or receives assistance from the examiner Subject
should understand that they must maintain their balance while attempting the tasks. The choices of
which leg to stand on or how far to reach are left to the subject. Poor judgment will adversely
influence the performance and the scoring.

Equipment required for testing is a stopwatch or watch with a second hand, and a ruler or other
indicator of 2, 5, and 10 inches. Chairs used during testing should be a reasonable height. Either a step
or a stool of average step height may be used for item # 12.
