本研究的目的是双重的：首先，研究性别和手性对手在槽钉板测试中的表现的影响；其次，提供两个版本的标准数据（放置和移除任务）的槽钉板测试，因为之前的工作（Bryden & Roy, 1999）表明，槽钉板的移除任务可能比标准的槽钉板测试提供更纯粹的双手电机速度测量。153名参与者（47名男性和106名女性）完成了槽钉板测试。个人执行标准版本的槽钉板测试（放置任务）和新版本的测试（移除任务）。在标准版本中，参与者被计时放置钉子的速度，而在新颖版本中，他们被计时移除钉子的速度。结果证实了先前在槽钉板测试的位置任务中提到的手和性别差异，以及惯用手对表现的影响不足（bernstein, 1985; Ruff & Parker, 1993; Schmidt, Oliveira, Rocha, & Abreu-Villaca, 2000）。在“移除”任务中，两只手的表现也存在显著差异。研究结果还表明，“移除”任务对性别和惯用手的影响很敏感。(c) 2005爱思唯尔公司版权所有。
The purpose of the present study was twofold: first to examine the influences of sex and handedness on manual performance on the Grooved Pegboard Test; and secondly to provide normative data for two versions (Place and Remove tasks) of the Grooved Pegboard Test, as previous work (Bryden & Roy, 1999) had suggested that the Remove task of the Grooved pegboard may provide a purer measure of motor speed of the two hands than the standard administration of the Grooved Pegboard Test. One hundred and fifty-three (47 males and 106 females) participants completed the Grooved Pegboard Test. Individuals performed the standard version of the Grooved Pegboard Test (Place task) and a novel version of the test (Remove task). In the standard version, participants were timed on their speed for placing the pegs, while in the novel version they were timed on their speed for removing the pegs. Results confirmed previously noted hand and sex differences in the Place task of the Grooved Pegboard Test, as well as the lack of effect of handedness on performance (Bornstein, 1985; Ruff & Parker, 1993; Schmidt, Oliveira, Rocha, & Abreu-Villaca, 2000). Significant performance differences between the hands were also noted for the Remove task. Findings also indicated that the Remove task was sensitive to sex and handedness effects.
