Plate Tapping: Females, Age 10

The Plate Tapping test (also called the alternating hand movement test or speed of limb movement test) is a Eurofit battery assessment of hand-eye coordination and motor speed. The participant alternately taps two circular plates 60 cm apart as fast as possible for 25 cycles (50 touches). Data are from Tomkinson et al. (2018), a pooled analysis of 148,093 European children and adolescents from 19 countries aged 9–17.

What these numbers mean for females aged 10

A score around 14.9 s is typical (50th percentile) for females in this age group. Times below about 13.3 s fall near the 75th percentile or higher, indicating above-average performance (faster is better). Times above about 17.16 s fall near the 25th percentile; about 75% of the reference population performed faster.

Percentiles show how common a value is, not whether it is healthy.
