Wood, Nancy E. – Academic Therapy, 1977
A study involving 8 children (mean age 9.3 years; seven Ss with possible visual-perceptual disability) was conducted to determine if directed art activities could increase visual perception as measured by the Frostig Developmental Test of Visual Perception. (SBH)

Peer reviewedSmith, Philip A.; Marx, Ronald W. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1972
Evaluation of the Frostig Developmental Test of Visual Perception found that it measured a single general factor of perceptual organization which was weakly related to IQ and unrelated to reading ability. (KW)

The project's purpose was to determine whether attention to the task during testing was a confounding variable in measures of visual perception ability. Samples of 30 perceptually handicapped (PH) and 30 normal subjects (N) were randomly selected from children so classified on the Frostig DTVP, providing they had IQ scores between 85 and 115 on…

The investigation attempted to determine first, the correlations among the Frostig Developmental Test of Visual Perception, the Bender Visual-Motor Gestalt Test, and an experimental Visual Discrimination Test of Words and second, the visual perceptual factors that emerged when the data were treated factorially.

MEYERSON, DANIEL W. – 1967
BASED ON THE HYPOTHESIS THAT KEPHART PERCEPTUAL TRAINING WOULD SHARPEN VISUAL PERCEPTION IN PERCEPTUALLY HANDICAPPED KINDERGARTENERS, THIS PROGRAM STUDIED 58 SUCH CHILDREN ACCORDING TO THREE CATEGORIES (1) THE FROSTIG DEVELOPMENTAL TEST OF VISUAL PERCEPTION, (2) SOCIO ECONOMIC STATUS, AND (3) VISUAL ACUITY (KEENNESS). THE CHILDREN WERE DIVIDED…

Centralia School District, Buena Park, CA. – 1966
THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROJECT WAS TO IDENTIFY KINDERGARTEN PUPILS WHO, WHEN COMPARED WITH OTHER CHILDREN OF THE SAME AGE AND SEX, EVIDENCED PROBLEMS IN THE AREA OF VISUAL PERCEPTION. TESTS USED TO MEASURE SUCH DEFICIENCIES WERE THE BENDER TEST AND THE FROSTIG TEST OF VISUAL PERCEPTION, SUB-TEST I AND III. MATCHED PAIRS WERE SELECTED FROM THE TOTAL…

Cohen, S. Alan – Academic Therapy Quarterly
The findings of several tests are used to describe some learning disabilities and patterns common in lower-class Puerto Rican and Negro children. In particular, perceptual dysfunction is pointed to as a major causal factor in the reading problems of the disadvantaged. In one urban slum school, 40 percent of first graders showed serious dysfunction…
