Which of the following tests is used for the assessment of apraxia?

The Florida Apraxia Screening Test is specifically designed to assess individuals for apraxia, a disorder characterized by the inability to perform tasks or movements when asked, despite having the desire and physical ability to execute the action. This test evaluates various forms of apraxia, such as ideomotor apraxia and ideational apraxia, through a series of tasks that require the individual to demonstrate motor planning and the ability to coordinate movements.

Other assessments do not focus on apraxia: the Mini-Mental State Examination is primarily used for cognitive assessment and screening for dementia. The Psychomotor Function Test evaluates overall motor skills and coordination, but it does not specifically assess apraxia. The Handwriting Analysis Test primarily looks at the quality and legibility of handwriting, which, while it can provide some information about motor control, does not target apraxic impairments directly. Thus, the Florida Apraxia Screening Test is the appropriate choice for evaluating apraxia.
