Abstract

Two adaptations of the Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency (a published experimental edition and an unpublished doctoral dissertation) were compared. Both are discussed in the light of their use within a psychoeducational battery by a school psychologist. Comparisons were made on test structure, administration, scoring, and sampling of both tests. Research is reported on the Sloan adaptation of the Oseretsky suggesting that there are specific aspects of motor proficiency which can be measured. The Holbrook adaptation, although without reported research, attempts to measure separate areas of motor proficiency and has established normative tables for this purpose.
