Book Description
"It was the purpose of this investigation to evaluate the Bender Gestalt Visual Motor Test for use in a school setting. Validity studies pertinent to the problem were examined. An attempt was made to determine the relevance of the technique with respect to grade school pupils and adolescents. The present status of the Bender Gestalt Test in the schools is equivocal. Its misuse is noted in situations where the administration is unnecessary and where the Bender protocol is misinterpreted. Its potential as an important psychological test has also been cited. In an attempt to co-ordinate the research which has been done on he Bender Gestalt, its utility with children will be examined. To date, the investigations have taken many directions and considered a multitude of variables. Before significant research may be forthcoming, a consideration of the present situation is necessary."--Leaves 1-2.
