Bender Gestalt Test Performance and the Word Recognition Skills of Disadvantaged Children

Baker, E. H.; Thurber, Steven

Journal of School Psychology, 14, 1, 64-66, Spr 76

The Bender Gestalt Test and the WRAT reading section were administered to 147 disadvantaged children. The zero-order correlation of -.62 was found to be moderated by the variable of age. For younger subjects, highly significant first- and second-order partial correlations were obtained with age and/or WISC information scores held constant. (Author)
