A 3-year program for early identification and remediation of perceptual deficiencies to prevent or minimize learning disabilities was conducted with two successive kindergarten classes. The 1967 class received intensive training for 3 years, while the 1968 class received intensive training for 2 years. Comparison of pre and posttest data for…

Bologa, James F.; And Others – 1971
The study was conducted to measure variables related to safe driving and to designate factors predictive of success in driving safety of educable mentally retarded (EMR) students as compared to normal students. Subjects were 349 EMR and 443 intellectually normal students (ages 16-20), who were evaluated in the following areas: visual acuity,…

Arnett, Chappelle; Thompson, Margaret M. – 1970
This initial phase of the comprehensive Missouri Physical Assessment Program consisted of the selection of test items to measure the components of perceptual-motor and motor performance for pre-school through grade six children. These components were identified as Balance, Rhythm and Coordination, Movement Patterns, Strength, and…

Rosner, Jerome – 1971
This paper describes a visual-motor training program that has been successfully implemented with children aged 3-11. Various studies related to the development of children's visual-motor skills are reviewed and a rationale associated with the teaching of appropriate visual-motor processes is explained. Application of this rationale to the visual…

Hollinshead, Merrill T. – 1975
Evaluated was a program designed to make an early diagnosis of the emotional problems and learning disabilities of 40 preschool children, and to furnish educational interventions so that these problems might be ameliorated before the children enter formal schooling. The program centered around speech and language, perceptual-motor activities, and…

Peer reviewedJunkala, John; Talbot, Michael L. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
Because the Matching Familiar Figures Test has a heavy visual perceptual loading, its usefulness for measuring cognitive style was examined with cerebral palsied students, frequently characterized by ocular anomalies and visual perceptual deficits. The students' cognitive styles were qualitatively similar to nonhandicapped. Extraocular movements…

Noland, Melody; Gruber, Joseph J. – Research Quarterly, 1976
The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between selected personality and motor variables in emotionally disturbed elementary school children; also to determine an estimate of the reliability of certain measuring instruments when used with this special group of subjects.

Sexton, David; And Others – Journal of the Division for Early Childhood, 1988
When administered to 34 infants with handicaps, Bayley Scale mental age scores were an average of 2.1 months higher than Estimated Developmental Ages (EDA's) calculated from the Uzgiris and Hunt Scales. The EDA's were significantly and positively related to Bayley mental age, and sensorimotor play emerged as the best single correlate. (Author/JDD)
