Reported is a study to determine effects of two instructional programs on reading readiness, visual perception, and science process skill attainment. One group received instruction in Part A, A-K level activities of "Science--A Process Approach;" another treatment group received visual perceptual training via the "Frostig Perceptual…

To examine the relationship between performance on the Frostig Developmental Test of Visual Perception and birth order, 578 first-graders were tested. (Author)

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.

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…

Examined was the relationship between the Frostig Developmental Test of Visual Perception and academic achievement as measured by the scholastic Research Association Achievement Test Battery with 125 primary grade children. (Author/DB)

INJURY TO THE NERVOUS SYSTEM CAN RESULT IN DEFECTS OF FIGURE FORMATION SUCH AS LACK OF PRECISION OF FIGURE AND UNCERTAINTY AS TO WHICH IS FIGURE AND WHICH IS GROUND. IMPAIRMENT OF FIGURE GROUND PROCESSES MAY BE LIMITED TO ONE AREA OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM FUNCTION. DISTURBANCE IN FIGURE FORMATION MAY NOT RESULT IN PERCEPTION DISTURBANCES, DEPENDING…

Learning sets programs were administered to preschool deaf children from a variety of representative educational programs throughout the southwest to improve their visual perception skills. The concept of learning sets was described as progression from trial-and-error learning to immediate problem solving by insight. The project consisted of six…

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…

Research is reviewed to determine the value of the Frostig Developmental Test of Visual Perception as a predictor of reading performance and whether the Frostig Visual Perception Training Program improves reading performance. (KW)
