Gifted Children and Visual-Motor Development: A Comparison of Bender-Gestalt and VMI Test Performance.

Knoff, Howard M.; Sperling, Barbara L.

Psychology in the Schools, v23 n3 p247-51 Jul 1986

A sample of 63 gifted elementary-school students was administered the Bender Visual-Motor Gestalt Test and the Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration. Group results revealed no significant differences between the two tests, that they did correlate significantly, and that younger students had advanced visual-motor development when tested using these two tools.
