VISUO‐PERCEPTIVE AND VISUO‐MOTOR PERFORMANCE OF CHILDREN WITH READING DISABILITIES

Abstract
Nielsen, H. H. & Ringe, K. Visuo‐perceptive and visuo‐motor performance of children with reading disabilities. Scand. J. Psychol., 1969, 10, 225–231.—Twenty 9–10‐year‐old children with reading disability were compared with twenty normal readers on Frostig Test of Visual Perception, Bender Visual Motor Gestalt Test and Goodenough Draw‐a‐Person Test. Contrary to prediction, the results showed more similarity than difference in performance level between the two groups, only the Bender Test discriminating significantly (p). It was concluded that impaired visual perception and visuo‐motor dysfunction did not seem important correlates of reading disability.
