Abstract
MERINO SOTO, César. Exploring normative differences in qualitative scoring system for modified the bender gestalt test. liber. [online]. 2011, vol.17, n.2, pp.199-209. ISSN 1729-4827.
This study explores the magnitude of difference in scores from Qualitative Scoring System to Bender Gestalt Test Modified using different normative data from Peru, USA and China. In a sample of 324 children (boys and girls) between 5 and 6 ages, we analyzed the potential differences in density, central tendency, dispersion and visual motor performance classifications. It was found large normative differences, and therefore, performance in participants was highly overestimated or underestimated depending on the standard used. It discusses the impact of these results in the appropriate assessment practice in children.
