Assessment Pegboard Purdue Test The Purdue Pegboard is a dexterity test to aid in the selection of employees for industrial jobs such as assembly packing operation of certain machines and other manual jobs. It measures dexterity for two types of activity: one involving gross movements of hands, fingers, arms & the other involving primarily what might be called “fingertip dexterity. Five separate scores can be obtained with the Purdue Pegboard: Right hand; Left hand; Both hands; Right plus left plus both hands (R+L+B); Assembly. The Purdue Pegboard was standardized after extensive experimentation in numerous plants involving the testing of several thousand employees in a wide variety of industrial jobs. Dexterity tests in both pegboard & other forms have been in use for some time. The pegboard is equipped with pins, collars & washers which are located in four cups at the top of the board. It can be administered to individuals or groups. It is timed as follows: right hand 30 seconds; left hand 30 seconds; both hands 30 seconds; assembly 1 minute.. The entire testing period is about 10 minutes. It is hand scored. Because of the non-verbal nature of the test it can also be used by non-English language groups. *** For further information please contact us at healthcaresolutions@ebuyer.com***
