measure Snellen Chart
Study: Netherlands Twin Register Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Young Netherlands Twin Register YC_ADHMRIA Snellen chart is an eye chart that can be used to measure visual acuity. The Snellen chart is printed with eleven lines of block letters. The first line consists of one very large letter, which may be one of several letters, for example E, H, or N. Subsequent rows have increasing numbers of letters that decrease in size. A person taking the test covers...Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Lungs - Allergy test
Study: Generation R Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Generation R 9-10 yearsSensitization for birch, cat or dog, or five grass mixture was measured with skin prick tests. Allergy outcomes were categorized into the groups “no inhalant allergic sensitization, no physician-diagnosed inhalant allergy,” “inhalant allergic sensitization but no physician-diagnosed inhalant allergy,” “no inhalant allergic sensitization but...Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Muscle function and bone strength (Mechanography)
Study: Generation R Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Generation R 17-18 yearsMuscle function and bone strength were assessed using mechanography. This includes a mechanographic record of jumping movements on a specially designed springboard. Relevant functional parameters such as strength and spot force are measured to determine coordination, muscle function and muscle-bone relationship.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Exercise test - Steep Ramp Test
Study: Generation R Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Generation R 13-14 yearsThe Steep Ramp Test is a short maximal exercise test that measures the peak work rate (WRpeak), which is a valid and reliable estimation of the maximal aerobic exercise capacity and thus cardiorespiratory fitness.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Audiometry
Study: Generation R Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Generation R 9-10 years 13-14 years 17-18 yearsAudiometry measurements evaluate an individual's hearing abilities, with pure-tone audiometry assessing hearing sensitivity across different frequencies and intensities, and tympanometry measuring the middle ear's response to changes in air pressure.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Neuromotor development
Study: Generation R Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Generation R 6 weeks 3 months 6 months 1 yearNeuromotor development was assessed using items from the Touwen’s Neurodevelopmental Examination.

measure Shuttle run test
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T3
Clinical cohort CC - T3The shuttle run test is a validated assessment of physcial fitness. In the task, participants have to continuously run between two lines that are twenty meters apart and reach the lines before a recorded beep. Measurements include performance, heart rate, heart rate variability, and lung capacity.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024
