TY - JOUR PY - 1964// TI - Visual-motor coordination in underachieving and "normal" school boys JO - Perceptual and motor skills A1 - Vanderiet, V. A1 - Vanderiet, H. SP - 731 EP - 734 VL - 19 IS - 3 N2 -
Forty-five underachieving fourth, fifth, and sixth grade boys and 45 controls were administered the Ellis Visual Designs to determine whether underachievers have more difficulty in visual-motor coordination than the non-underachievers. The results showed no significant difference in the visual-motor performance by the groups. The results are interpreted as supporting the hypothesis that severe underachievement is not generally a result of brain damage but rather of other factors, presumably psychological in nature.
