The Tactual Performance Test (TPT) is a neuropsychological test that attempts to measure motor abilities and the recall of motor stimuli. This test requires the use of a blindfold, which taxes subsystems involved in motor and motor-memory.[1]
The TPT is also included in the Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Battery.[2]
