Brown, Ted – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2019
The Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency -- Second Edition (BOT-2) is a commonly used assessment of children's skills. It is important that assessments have validity evidence reported about them. The objective of the study was to investigate the structural validity of the BOT-2's eight subscales and four composite scales. A sample of 117…

Stevens, Christopher John; Dascombe, Ben James – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2015
Sports performance testing is one of the most common and important measures used in sport science. Performance testing protocols must have high reliability to ensure any changes are not due to measurement error or inter-individual differences. High validity is also important to ensure test performance reflects true performance. Time-trial…

Garn, Alex C.; Webster, E. Kipling – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2018
The Test of Gross Motor Development--Second Edition (TGMD-2) is a widely used evaluation tool of children's fundamental motor skills (FMS). This study illustrates how exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) addresses current limitations associated with TGMD-2 factor structure. Using the normative dataset from the TGMD-2 manual, we test…

Allen, K. A.; Bredero, B.; Van Damme, T.; Ulrich, D. A.; Simons, J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2017
The validity and reliability of the Test of Gross Motor Development-3 (TGMD-3) were measured, taking into consideration the preference for visual learning of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The TGMD-3 was administered to 14 children with ASD (4-10 years) and 21 age-matched typically developing children under two conditions: TGMD-3…

Thompson, Gayle A.; Moss, Robert; Applegate, Brooks – Athletic Training Education Journal, 2014
Context: Validity arguments can be used to provide evidence that instructors are drawing accurate conclusions from the results of students' clinical performance assessments (PAs). Little research has been conducted in athletic training education to determine if the evidence supports the use of current PAs. Measurement theories designed to…

Hsiao, Hsien-Sheng; Chen, Jyun-Chen; Hong, Kunde – Interactive Learning Environments, 2016
Technical and vocational education emphasizes the development and training of hand motor skills. However, some problems exist in the current career and aptitude tests in that they do not truly measure the hand motor skills. This study used the Nintendo Wii Remote Controller as the testing device in developing a set of computerized testing tools to…
