Using Lego Robots to Estimate Cognitive Ability in Children who have Severe Disabilities

Author(s) / Creator(s)
Children with severe disabilities can control a Lego robot to perform un-structured play tasks. Success with the robot could be a proxy measure for children who have cognitive abilities but cannot demonstrate them in standard testing. Project results are presented and their utility as a proxy measure is explored.
