Term Description

NIH Toolbox performance measure fully adjusted scale score: This score compares the score of the test-taker to those in the NIH Toolbox nationally representative normative sample, while adjusting for key demographic variables collected during the Toolbox national norming study. These variables, which include age, gender, race (white, black, other), ethnicity (Hispanic vs. non-Hispanic), and educational attainment (for ages 3-17, parent's education is used; education is often used as a proxy for socioeconomic status), are often found to impact performance within a given domain, and thus a separate "fully adjusted" score is provided that allows for comparison within a narrower grouping. For example, a fully adjusted scale score of 100 on the NIH Toolbox Grip Strength Test for a 35-year-old, Hispanic, white male with a college education indicates performance that was at the national average for Hispanic, white males with college education, ages 30-39. This can be useful information since, in this example, notable differences in grip strength are typical for males vs. females; using the fully adjusted score allows the user to evaluate male (or female) performance relative only to other males (or females). Higher fully adjusted scale scores indicate better performance.
