Aspects of Motor Performance and Preacademic Learning.

Feder, Katya; Kerr, Robert

Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy, v63 n5 p293-303 Dec 1996

The Miller Assessment for Preschoolers (MAP) and a number/counting test were given to 50 4- and 5-year-olds. Low performance on counting was related to significantly slower average response time, overshoot movement time, and reaction time, indicating perceptual-motor difficulty. Low MAP scores indicated difficulty processing visual spatial information. (SK)
