Token Test

The Token Test app is an implementation of the shortened Token Test for aphasia and language impairment detection devised by De Renzi and Faglioni (De Renzi, E., & Faglioni, P., Normative data and screening power of a shortened version of the Token Test. Cortex, 1978, 14, pp 41-49).

The current version 2 is an upgrade of the previous tablet application (Bastiaanse, R. Raaijmakers, S. & Satoer, D., 2015).

Some important changes:

  • Presentation and scoring bugs fixed
  • Timing adjusted
  • Visual feedback implemented
  • Discontinue conditions as of (De Renzi & Faglioni, 1978) original paper enabled
  • New languages added

FAQ's

Why is there no sound?

If the app itself is not frozen, but there is no sound, the app is probably on mute. Please make sure that media sound is allowed in the tablet settings. Sometimes there are several places you need to check. For iOS, you can follow these steps . For Android, that depends on your device; please consult the manufacturer’s documentation.

Why are the results not being mailed?

Results are not mailed automatically. You have to mail them by using the "send email" function in the menu.

The Token Test App uses the default email agent on your device to send messages. If the email from within the app is not working, your email agent is probably either absent, off, or logged out. Please make sure that it is on and functional, and try again. If you can send an email but do not receive it, please make sure you are connected to the internet.

In case the issues are not resolved, or you have other questions, please contact the support at tokentest@rug.nl.
