Figure 1. Examination of fine motor performance.

Figure 1

A commercial test-series was used to measure the fine motor performance of both hands.

The “steadiness” task describes the ability to maintain prescribed arm-hand positions (a).

“Line tracing” describes the ability to fulfil precise arm-hand movements (b).

“Aiming” describes the ability to accomplish fast movements directed at small targets (c).

Finally, “tapping” describes the ability to perform very fast, repetitive hand movements (d).
