Sex Differences in Early Bender-Gestalt Test Performance

Abstract

The relationship between sex differences and early visual-motor test performance was studied. Kindergarten children (30 girls and 30 boys) in a New York City public school were administered the Bender Visual-motor Gestalt Test. When scored by the Koppitz Developmental Scoring System, no significant differences were found. A more detailed qualitative analysis of the nature of the specific errors was also done. Using this approach, boys showed more difficulty with accurate copying of individual features of designs, e.g., angles of a diamond.
