ABSTRACT
The test consists of 11 large coloured photographs of people with problems (1 sample item and 10 test items). Some problems relate to the individual in the photograph, for example, a cut finger or a headache, some relate to a problem in the environment, such as on a ward or at home, for instance, spilt coffee or a broken cup. On the same page as each of the large photographs are four smaller photographs of different objects. One is the solution, the other three are distractors, one visual, one semantic and one unrelated. The distractors are positioned randomly on the page to avoid the possibility of perseveration in responding. The problems were chosen to be familiar and to be likely to occur in an environment where physical mobility might be restricted. The individual's responses are ringed on the photocopiable scoring sheet; verbal responses, if given, can be recorded in the space provided.
