  • Title: Evaluating the visual-perceptual skills of children with cerebral palsy.
    Author: Menken C, Cermak SA, Fisher A.
    Journal: Am J Occup Ther; 1987 Oct; 41(10):646-51. PubMed ID: 3688118.
    Abstract:
    The Test of Visual-Perceptual Skills (TVPS) was used to determine if children with cerebral palsy demonstrated problems in visual perception on a motor-free visual perception test. Twenty-four children with cerebral palsy and 24 normal children, all of normal intelligence, were given the TVPS. Results showed that children with cerebral palsy attained significantly lower mean perceptual quotients than did the normal children. The TVPS appears to be a useful tool for the occupational therapist in evaluating visual perception in children with cerebral palsy.
