Hi Christopher,

Higher scores should indicate better performance on the NIH Toolbox cognition 
tests. The scores should have a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 15 as 
normed against the nationally representative NIH Toolbox normative sample. More 
details on the scoring are available in the NIH Toolbox Scoring and 
Interpretation Guide<https://wustl.box.com/s/64qg76xll2wesvql53vl6eypny0oezm3> 
that was in place in 2012 when HCP-Young Adult started collecting participant 
data .


Best,

Jenn

Dear HCP Team,



Am I right with the presumption that for all NIH toolbox measures of cognitive 
function higher scores indicate better performance? I’m getting somewhat 
paradoxical results when looking at some of the cognitive measures (i.e. 
Flanker and DCST) so I just want to double-check…



Thanks for your help and all your great work!



Chris
