What It Measures

The ARAT consists of 19 items that are grouped into four subtests: grasp, grip, pinch, and gross movement. All items are rated on a 4-point ordinal scale ranging from 0 (no movement possible) to 3 (normal performance of the task). The subtest scores vary according to the number of items performed in each subtest.
