Abstract
Objective : To comment on the correlation between VMI scores and the sensory processing of children in the age group 3-7 years Methodology : The typically developing children with no known cognitive, mental or physical affectation were assessed using the Beery's Visuo Motor Integration test (Short Form) and the Structured Clinical Observations of Sensory Processing. Results :There was a significant and positive relationship found between the VMI scores and the structured clinical observations of Diadokokinesis, Sequential Finger Touching, Protective extension, Praxis, Free Play and Play Preferences and Conscious and Automatic Eye Movements. Conclusion : There is a positive correlation between the visuo motor skills and sensory processing skills of children. Affectation of Visuo motor skills may be resultant of faulty sensory processing. The remediation programs for visuo motor skill affectations should therefore be structured after assessing the sensory processing of the child and keeping in background the sensory processing deficiencies of the child.
