Evaluation of a self-administered iPad ® -based processing speed assessment for people with multiple sclerosis in a clinical routine setting.

The PST performed in a waiting room setting correlates strongly with established cognitive tests. It thus may be used to assess processing speed in a resource-efficient manner and complement cognitive assessment in clinical routine. Despite comparable validity of the PST and SDMT, we identified more pwMS with impaired processing speed using normative data of the SDMT compared to the PST and advise caution, that the common cut-off score of - 1.5 SD from the current PST is not appropriate in Europe.
