Proper Citation: NIH Toolbox Grip Strength Test (RRID:SCR_003633)

Description: Assessment test that measures grip strength. Participants are seated in a chair with their feet touching the ground. With the elbow bent to 90 degrees and the arm against the trunk, wrist at neutral, participants squeeze the Jamar Plus Digital dynamometer as hard as they can for a count of three. The dynamometer provides a digital reading of force in pounds. A practice trial at less than full force and 1 test trial are completed with each hand. This protocol is adapted from the grip strength testing protocol of the American Society of Hand Therapy. The test takes approximately 3 minutes to administer and is recommended for ages 3-85.
