Abstract
COVID-19 is associated with cognitive and motor impairments. In the present study, more recent infection of COVID-19 correlated with increased perceived workload, but not performance itself, during the Grooved Pegboard, a test of visual-motor coordination and manual dexterity. Results suggest non-normal neurological status, despite normal test performance.
