Prediction of Later Cognitive Behavior from Early School Perceptual-Motor, Perceptual, and Cognitive Performances.

Belka, David E.; Williams, Harriet G.

Perceptual and Motor Skills, v49 n1 p131-41 Aug 1979

The battery of perceptual and perceptual-motor tests (including one fine and two gross perceptual-motor tasks, and one visual and two auditory perceptual tasks) were useful for prediction of cognitive performance one year later at kindergarten age. However, cognitive achievement in first grade, and even more so in second grade, was best predicted from knowledge of earlier cognitive performances. (Author/DLS)
