CogniTOT™ (Touch Screen Assessment Tool)
Author
Professor Deirdre Murray
Introduction
CogniTOT™ is the only commercially available tablet–based assessment validated for under 3 years of age. CogniTOT has been developed through 10 years of clinical research in more than 1000 clinical confirming internal consistency as a nonverbal assessment of early cognitive control.
CogniTOT™ is a touchscreen assessment tool clinically proven to detect learning delays in young children, the assessments have been designed to assess toddler’s fundamental cognitive abilities and individual cognitive domains.
CogniTOT™ was developed by Professor Deirdre Murray and a dedicated multidisciplinary team at Liltoda. This team was determined to develop a unique product that would detect learning delays in young children aged 22–30 months.
The CogniTOT™ app is designed to be a non–verbal assessment and was validated in children from multi–lingual homes. Tested in multiple cohorts to confirm ability to screen for developmental delay: proven concurrent validity and excellent internal consistency.
CogniTOT was designed to be used by:
- Clinical Psychologists
- Research Psychologists
- Pediatricians
- Researchers in the Field of early childhood development
SCORING
