• see previous meeting minutes March 11

• timing the tests - counter/no-counter - count upwards from zero / clock icon - no timer icon necessary?
• visual acuity / colour perception - forced-choice/JND task
• motor accuracy + speed test (Fitts' law layout / pegboard test)
• visual reproduction task indicative of early dementia - field neglect
• feedback in arithmetic task required
• test interruption / resumption - "are you still there?" prompt after threshold time elapsed of inactivity

To do:

• Kori Inkpen - drag+drop vs. point+click - differences between older users / children - must be consistent
• Karyn Moffat - Ph.D thesis - reference - performance differences between 5 wordings of speed/accuracy task instructions (Fitt's task)
• review papers for clinical diagnoses / conditions (Claudia)
• ongoing Lit Review
