VISIT-TS video (full version, and first half only)

VISIT-TS (Video-Integrated Screening Instrument for Tics and Tourette Syndrome) is a multimedia tool intended to demonstrate tics to a lay audience, to discuss their defining and common attributes, and to address features that differentiate tics from other movements and vocalizations. The video includes a teaching section (5 minutes) followed by questions about whether the individual watching has ever had tics (5 minutes). The original intended use of VISIT-TS is for epidemiological research.

On this page you will find links to two videos. The file named VISIT-TS_v2_20160516.mp4 contains both sections mentioned above: the teaching section followed by questions. The file named VISIT-TS_v2_first5_20260406.mp4 contains only the first half (the teaching section) for occasions when the questions about individual tic history are not needed.
