The DTVP-A is a battery of six subtests that measure different but interrelated visual-perceptual and visual-motor abilities. The test is based on the same theoretical background as the Developmental Test of Visual Perception-Second Edition (DTVP-2), which is frequently used to evaluate perceptual-motor skills in children ages 4 through 10. The DTVP-A is an extension and redevelopment of this classic work, designed for use with adolescents and adults.
The DTVP-A may be useful in the evaluation of TBI and stroke patients where right-hemisphere function may be an issue. The test has sufficient floor (easy) items to allow accurate assessment of individuals with severe TBI or other significant neurological impairments. The reliability of the various subtests and index scores indicates that the DTVP-A will be sensitive to improvement over the course of treatment.
The DTVP-A is useful in distinguishing true visual-perceptual deficits from problems solely with complex eye-hand or perceptual-motor actions and the results can suggest areas of emphasis in cognitive and fine motor rehabilitation. The DTVP-A may also assist in differential diagnosis of some dementias in elderly patients; providing a baseline for normal ageing changes in perception and perceptual-motor skills against which the referred patient may be referenced.
Subtests include Copying, Figure-Ground, Visual-motor Search, Visual Closure, Visual-motor Speed, and Form Constancy
