Abstract
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to obtain normative data for Motor-Free Visual Perception Test (MVPT) in Chennai children.To find out the performance difference between genders. METHOD. Three Hundred and Thirty One typically developing children comprising of 167 girls and 164 boys were taken from normal school situated in various parts of Chennai. RESULTS. No significant difference (F=0.150, p=0.698) between gender on MVPT performance. Pearson correlation exhibits positive correlation (r= 0.746, p<0.001) between age and raw. CONCLUSION. Cultural influence has been scrutinized in visual perception. It also suggested that there was no gender difference and raw score increases as age matures. This study concluded that there is a strong need to ensure that norms for visual perceptual test are appropriate for specific cultural group being assessed. The norms produced in this study form the baseline for MVPT and can be used for screening and therapeutic purpose.
