The test has been used with various different populations, including teenagers[1] , the elderly, and those with Alzheimer's[2]. One study claimed that it is not only the number of blocks used that may measure one’s visuo-spatial memory, but the number of times specific blocks appear in the example sequence[3]. Another study suggested that despite there being numerous ways to give this test, including having the sequence of blocks being presented in clusters, the effectiveness as a measure is unchanged[4]. It has also been suggested that this test is just as efficient when administered digitally (on a tablet or computer) when compared to using physical blocks[5]. Due to the versatile nature of this test, a wide variety of findings have been made with its use. A study determined through the use of this test that spatial memory may be the same among those in the early stages of Alzheimer’s and those who do not have the disease[6]. In other research with Alzheimer’s patients, this test helped to illustrate the importance of working memory in relation to topographical disorientation[7]. Timed sessions of this test also provide insight regarding spatial sequence processing. One study claimed that participants did not begin planning their block selection sequence until they had finished watching the researcher’s example sequence[8]. This test, in conjunction with other measures, also may reveal which areas of the brain manifest or compensate for visuospatial deficits[9]. This test, along with tools to examine the working brain, also helps differentiate visuo-spatial ability among age groups[10]. Another use of this test has been in determining cognitive differences between bilingual and monolingual speakers, with the test acting as a tool to determine which group possesses superior spatial working memory[11]. The versatility of this test has not gone unnoticed, with the existence of an entire study devoted solely to exploring the numerous variations of this test and their effectiveness[12].
