Description

Kathleen Hall and a large team of co-authors validate a thinking test battery for use at home. Their 2025 study covers the California Cognitive Assessment Battery, with 32 tests run on tablets. Home testing can reach groups often left out of research, but noise and cheating are fair worries.

Sound is fed at high volume through padded headphones, and speech is caught by a noise-cutting mic. A remote proctor watches scores live and can step in by video chat. Over 300 older adults took the tests at home during the pandemic. Scores held steady when people later retested in a lab. The team finds no clear gap between home and lab results.
