A computerized version of the TOLT was administered using the Colorado assessment tests (CATs) for cognitive and neuropsychological assessment (Davis, 2002). The TOLT was used to assess planning and problem‐solving skills (Shallice, 1982) and has been described in a previous publication (Pandey et al., 2018). Briefly, participants were required to move colored beads on a computer screen from a starting position to a goal position in as few one‐by‐one moves as possible. The test consisted of 21 trials with 3, 4, and 5 colored beads placed on respective number of pegs, with seven problems per puzzle‐type. Derived performance measures were available for 1,860 trauma‐exposed individuals and included average trial time (ATRTI) and excess moves made (EM) for each puzzle‐type separately and once across all puzzle‐types. For the purpose of this study, TOLT performance measures across all puzzle types were used. Consistent with all other measures in this study, data from the last TOLT evaluation were used.
