PrimaryTrial making test10 minutes
This test assesses various cognitive skills, including attention, visuo-motor planning, sustained attention, and working memory. Participants are given an A4 sheet with numbered circles and instructed to quickly connect them in ascending order. There are two TMT forms: TMT A with only numbers (1 to 25) and TMT B with alternating numbers and letters (1, A; 2, B; … to 13). Scarpa et al. introduced a new 'A/B' form between A and B, using only letters (A to Z), where participants connect letters in alphabetical order. This aims to ensure that children, especially younger ones, possess the alphabetical knowledge needed for part B. Scarpa, P et al. doi:10.1007/s10072-006-0717-5

PrimaryWisconsin Card Sorting Test10 minutes
The Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) is a neuropsychological assessment of set-shifting, measuring one's ability to demonstrate flexibility in response to changes in reinforcement. Participants are presented with stimulus cards and instructed to match them. Crucially, they are not provided with explicit instructions on how to make the matches but receive feedback indicating whether their choices are correct or incorrect. In its initial release, the test involved an evaluator using paper cards, positioned on one side of the desk while the participant faced them on the other side.

PrimaryLuria's motor tasks15 minutes
Motor planning and executive action control were investigated using Luria's motor tasks. In the 'contrast' task, which assessed the ability to prevent interference effects, participants were required to execute an action opposite to that performed by the examiner, resisting the inclination to imitate the examiner's action. Inhibition of control was assessed through a 'Go-No-Go' task. Scores for each subtest ranged from 0 (no correct responses) to 3 (all correct responses). The total score was the sum of the three subtest scores, with a range of 0 to 9. Scarpa, P et al. doi:10.1007/s10072-006-0717-5

PrimaryLondon's tower test15 minutes
The Tower of London (TOL) test, developed by Shallice in 1982 and further refined by Norman and Shallice in 1986, is one of the most widely used tools to assess strategic decision-making and problem-solving skills in children and adolescents aged 4 to 13. It serves both clinical and research purposes. The test involves a set-up with three pegs of varying lengths and three balls-red, green, and blue-that must be moved to achieve a configuration specified by the examiner. This test is instrumental in studying and measuring planning and monitoring abilities in task execution.

SecondaryVineland Adaptive Behavior Scale10 minutes
The Vineland assesses adaptive behavior across a wide age range, from birth to 90 years old. It comprises five main domains, each with 2-3 subdomains: Communication, Daily Living Skills, Socialization, Motor Skills, and optionally, Maladaptive Behavior. Administered individually, it features 11 general subdomains grouped into Communication, Daily Living Skills, Socialization, and Motor Skills. Subdomain scores contribute to domain composite scores, and these, in turn, combine to form adaptive behavior composites. For individuals aged 0 to 6 years 11 months, four domain composite scores are calculated, while those aged 7 to 90 have a composite based on three domains: communication, daily living skills, and socialization.

SecondaryChild Behavior Checklist (CBCL) questionnaire10 minutes
The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) is a segment of the Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment (ASEBA), a tool employed for identifying behavioral and emotional issues in children and adolescents. Administered by parents, the CBCL involves responding to 113 questions, with scores assigned on a three-point Likert scale (0=absent, 1=occurs sometimes, 2=occurs often).
