Abstract

This paper reviews the Finger Tapping Test (FTT). We present an algorithm of free distribution to do. The FTT is administered to a sample of 204 participants, of which 103 (50.5%) were elite athletes and 101 (49.5%) were non-athletes. An analysis of reliability through Cronbach Alpha. Also performed an analysis of generalizability satisfactory results validity, precision and reliability to both the data structure to the algorithm. We have obtained results that support the test as a simple measure of speed and motor control. We found significant results on the relationship between age and test performance, and in relation to the different performance of gender.
