Description
Elizabeth A Boots and co-authors pilot a self-run thinking test in people with progressive supranuclear palsy in a 2025 Mayo Clinic study. The disease, called PSP, is a rare brain disorder that affects movement and thought. Self-run tests work well in Alzheimer's disease, but their fit for other diseases was untested. The platform, Mayo Test Drive, runs on phones and tablets.
Eleven patients took both the self-run test and standard paper tests. Ten finished the self-run test in about twenty-two minutes on average. Users rated ease of use near nine out of ten, and all said they could manage alone, though some needed help with links or codes. Those with the worst movement symptoms struggled most with tablets. Score links with the standard tests were also checked.
