Abstract

Abstract

Objective: To assess test- retest reliability for Test of Visual- Perceptual Skills (non-motor) - Revised (TVPS-R) in normal children (Age 4 to 12 years).Study DesignCross sectional 

Methodology
240 children between age groups 4 to 12 years attending normal school were recruited for the study. TVPS-R was administered twice with a gap of one week duration to find test retest reliability
Results
The intraclass coefficient correlation for the total test ranged from 0.83 to 0.97 indicating good test retest reliability. The intraclass coefficient correlation for each subtest ranged from 0.21 to 0.97 indicating very poor to good test retest reliability. In the results of individual subtests, variations were found most commonly in the subtests of visual memory and visual sequential memory. In visual memory, 5 age groups (5-6, 7-8, 9-10, 10-11, and 11-12) and visual sequential memory, 5 age groups (4-5, 7-8, 9-10, 10-11, and 11-12) showed poor to moderate intraclass coefficient correlation ranged from 0.21 to 0.65.
Conclusions
Total test scores of TVPS-R shows good test- retest reliability. Test-retest reliability of individual subtests shows variations. Thus in clinical decision making or treatment planning, TVPS-R total test scores should be considered, rather than the individual subtest scores.
