This study investigates test-retest and interscorer reliability for three tests of form copying: the Minnesota Percepto-Diagnostic Test, the Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-motor Integration, and the Bender-Gestalt. Tests were administered to children in the second, fourth, and sixth grades in a lower middle-class school. All three tests produced relatively high interscorer reliability coefficients. The low test-retest reliability coefficients of the Minnesota Percepto-Diagnostic Test suggest caution in using this test with primary age children.
