abstract="[Purpose] The aim of this study was to identify the validity and reliability of the Motor Accuracy (MAc-R) test of the Sensory Integration and Praxis Test (SIPT) in Turkey. [Participants and Methods] The study sample group consisted of 100 children at a primary school registered to the Hatay Provincial Directorate of National Education. The children's ages ranged between 6 and 8 years, 11 months. The MAc-R test was implemented on the children through test-retest with a 2-week interval and whether or not the difference between these results was statistically significant was investigated. In addition, the Frostig Developmental Test of Visual Perception Eye-Hand Coordination Test was implemented once on each child and its relationship with the MAc-R test was examined. [Results] It was concluded that the MAc-R test is valid (r=-0.531) and reliable (r=0.834) in Turkish schoolchildren aged between 6 and 8 years, 11 months. [Conclusion] As a result, it is believed that identifying the validity and reliability of the MAc-R test in Turkey will have an important place in evaluating children's sensory integration in physiotherapy and rehabilitation practices.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
