The Construct Validity of the Hooper Visual Organization Test.

Johnstone, Brick; Wilhelm, Karen L.

Assessment, v4 n3 p243-48 Sep 1997

The construct validity of the Hooper Visual Organization Test (VOT) (H. Hooper, 1983) was studied by comparing it to conceptually similar and dissimilar cognitive abilities in a principal components analysis of results from 240 participants with cognitive impairment. Results suggest that the VOT is best considered a measure of visual-spatial intelligence. (SLD)
