Abstract
Doyle and colleagues (1986) are critical of the methodology employed in previous studies on the measurement of kinaesthetic sensitivity. Their criticisms are inappropriate in the context of the purpose and the final form of a standardized test of kinaesthetic sensitivity (Laszlo and Bairstow 1985b). They suggest an alternative methodology and imply--on the basis of a lack of correlation between different measures of sensitivity--that it is superior to the earlier methodology. The two methodologies give different measures of kinaesthetic sensitivity, and the reasons for a lack of correlation are discussed.Keywords
