  Age: 3-17

Administration: 5-10 minutes/subtest

The WRAVMA provides a comprehensive, economical assessment of visual-motorability. It provides a Visual-Motor Integration Composite, derived from separate subtest assessments of Fine-Motor, Visual-Spatial and Visual-Motor abilities, which can be administered either individually, or together, for a complete assessment.

The WRAVMA provides individual subtest scores, percentiles and age equivalents. Each of its three subtests was standardized nationally on a stratified sample of more than 2,600 children. Test materials are attractive to children, and easy for examiners to use.

The complete WRAVMA includes the Pegboard with Pegs, and 25 each of the Examiner Forms, Visual Matching Forms and Drawing Forms, in a soft case

Visual-motor integration is assessed by measuring its component parts, Visual-Motor, Visual-Spatial, and Fine-Motor Abilities. Visual-Motor integration is evaluated by copying designs. Visual-Spatial skills are assessed by the Matching Test. Fine-Motor skills are evaluated by the Pegboard Test.

For the Drawing, Matching, and Pegboard tests, a scaled score, standard score, age equivalent, and percentile may be obtained. All three combine to form a Visual-Motor Composite standard score. Reliability measures of the three subtests show internal consistency coefficients exceeding .90, test-retest reliability coefficients ranging from .81 to .91, and construct validity is supported by item separation of .99.
