Six Elements Test Six Elements TestA test that assesses the ability of people to perform several tasks at the same time. The test consists of three projects, each consisting of two parts. Subjects are asked to try to complete all six parts within ten minutes. However, even though this is likely to prove impossible in the allotted time, subjects must complete at least one part of each project, and they may not complete the second part of any project immediately after completing the first. The test assesses the ability of subjects to multitask, to plan, to use time effectively, and to solve problems. A refined and simplified version of the test, called the Modified Six Elements Test, is used to gauge cognitive deficits in patients with brain injury, attention deficit disorder, and other neurological and psychiatric diseases. |
