The categories 'high school completed'technicalcal incomplete', and 'university incomplete' were collapsed into 'high school completed'; the categories 'technical education completed' and 'university education completed' were collapsed into 'technical/university completed'.
The authors of this paper, along with other experts drawn from either participants at the Hopkinton conference or contacted by email by the authors (total = 15), completed the categories and questions which were presented in the form of an Excel spreadsheet.
44 Results found that children with CP, compared with controls, made more non-preservative errors, completed fewer categories, required more trials to complete the first category and gave fewer conceptual responses.
While the WCST perseverative errors score has frequently been examined in previous work pertaining to ADHD [ 46], non-perseverative errors, total errors, number of trials to complete the first category, as well as number of categories completed were also examined here.
The categories number of trials administered, total number of correct answers, total number of errors, number of perseverative responses, number of perseverative errors, number of categories completed, number of trials to complete the first category, and failure to maintain set were considered for analyzing gains related to cognitive flexibility in the present study.
Scores were based on number of trials administered, total number of correct responses, number of errors, number of perseverative responses, number of perseverative errors, number of non-perseverative errors, number of categories completed, number of trials to complete the first category, conceptual level responses, failure to maintain set, and learning to learn.
Following previous research (11), we assessed: 1) number of categories completed, 2) overall trials administered, 3) perseverative errors, 4) nonperseverative errors, 5) trials to complete the first category, and 6) failure to maintain set.
Time & motion data for different hierarchical activities are summarized through a mosaic chart where the width of the bar is scaled to the proportion of the time required to complete the task, comparing categories for physicians, nurses, and administrative assistants (figure 4).
