Hypothesis
The study aims to validate the reliability of BrainCheck when self-administered remotely.
Conclusion
The study found that remote self-administration of BrainCheck assessments is feasible and reliable.
Supporting Evidence
- Participants completed assessments on various devices including iPads, iPhones, and laptops.
- Moderate to good agreement was found between self- and examiner-administered performance.
- Intraclass correlation ranged from 0.59 to 0.83.
