Abstrakt: A sample of 375 Ss between the ages of 3 and 8 were given a series of fine motor tasks of which 7 comprised a single instrument. Speed of performance on these measures was found to relate primarily to age, although social class was occasionally a factor. Sex did not affect performance on the test. Speed of performance was found to be an exponential function of age. The measures on the test were found to be highly interrelated. Further, a sample of children referred for diagnosis for presumed retardation, organicity or learning difficulties differed significantly from the standardization population on these measures.
