  Our program has provided us with great practice and utilization of the Purdue Pegboard test. It is often used in our clinical rotations as well to evaluate changes in our clients' fine motor dexterity. This article determines the test-retest reliability of the Purdue Pegboard with individuals with multiple sclerosis. Thirty-two volunteers were administered the four subtests of the Purdue Pegboard, three trials in a row and a second administration was performed 1 week following the first administration. The test-retest reliability coefficients ranged from .85 to .90 from one-trial to .92 to .96 for the sum of three trials. This study suggests that the one-trial administration is sufficiently reliable to use with individuals with MS.
