Full Product Description
The BOT–3 measures a broad array of fine and gross motor skills. Eight core subtests and one supplementary subtest allow for in–depth assessment of motor abilities and identification of areas of relative strength.
With the BOT–3, you can:
Assess the motor development and proficiency of individuals from school age to early adulthood, ranging from those who are typically developing to those with mild to moderate motor challenges
Support diagnosis of motor impairments
Inform further evaluation, goal–setting, and interventions
Develop and evaluate motor training programs
Core subtests
Fine Motor Precision: includes untimed activities that require precise control of finger and hand movement
Fine Motor Integration: requires the examinee to reproduce drawings of various geometric shapes of increasing complexity
Manual Dexterity: uses timed, goal–directed activities that involve reaching, grasping, and bimanual coordination with small objects
Upper Limb Coordination: consists of activities designed to measure visual tracking with coordinated arm and hand movement, such as catching, dribbling, and throwing a ball
Bilateral Coordination: contains tasks requiring body control, and sequential and simultaneous coordination of the upper and lower limbs
Balance: evaluates fundamental balance skills that are integral for maintaining posture when standing or walking
Strength: measures trunk and upper and lower body strength
Dynamic Movement: assesses running speed and agility
Supplementary subtest
Extended Balance: involves more advanced balance skills using a balance beam
Features of the BOT–3
Occupational therapists, physical therapists, developmental adaptive physical education teachers, diagnosticians, and special education professionals appreciate the BOT–3 for its:
Engaging, game–like tasks
Large, clear pictures in the administration easel and optional demonstration videos that help examinees better understand the activities you need them to perform
Supplementary Extended Balance subtest to assess higher–performing individuals (requires Balance Beam not included in kit but available separately)
Three supplemental scores to provide even more clinically–useful information beyond the subtest and composite scores
Skilled Manual Performance – a norm–referenced score combining scores from the three subtests focused on skilled use of the hands for fine motor activities – Fine Motor Precision, Fine Motor Integration and Manual Dexterity – to provide a ‘pure’ measure of fine motor performance
Movement Fundamentals Score – a criterion–referenced score comprising select items from across four BOT–3 subtests (Upper Limb Coordination, Bilateral Coordination, Balance, Dynamic Movement). Measures Fundamental Movement Skills considered to be the building blocks of skilled movement required for participation in sports, leisure and activities of daily living
Motor Planning and Coordination – a norm–referenced score encompassing items from the full BOT–3 test that were shown to have particularly high discrimination between the Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) and typically developing groups
Separate fine motor and gross motor kits available
The fine motor kit includes subtests for: Fine Motor Precision, Fine Motor Integration, Manual Dexterity, and Upper–Limb Coordination
The gross motor kit includes subtests for:
Bilateral Coordination, Balance, Extended Balance, Dynamic
