What is the SIPT? correct answers the most comprehensive and statistically sound means for
assessing some important aspects of SI. Mostly tactile discrimination and praxis.
This test was NOT designed to look at modulation or regulation. It looks at function.
Should be combined with clinical observation of neuromotor responses and an assessment of
sensory modulation.
What are the primary domains of the SIPT? correct answers 1) Form & Space, Visual Motor
Coordination, and Construction
2) Tactile Discrimination
3) Praxis
4) Vestibular & Proprioceptive Processing
Form & Space, Visual Motor Coordination, and Construction Subtest---> SPACE
VISUALIZATION correct answers evaluates visual space perception and mental manipulation
of objects in space.
-necessary for recognizing letters and matching puzzle pieces
SPACE VISUALIZATION--->Contralateral Use correct answers the ability of a child to use
each hand contralaterally or ipsilateral space
SPACE VISUALIZATION--->Preferred Hand use correct answers proportion of attempted
items on which child uses dominant hand to place blocks
Form & Space, Visual Motor Coordination, and Construction Subtest--->FIGURE GROUND
correct answers requires child to select a foreground figure from a competing background.
-useful to find clothing in a pile of laundry, their own jacket from that of classmates, locating
objects in room (toy or pencil), reading tasks from a blackboard.
Form & Space, Visual Motor Coordination, and Construction Subtest--->STANDING AND
WALKING BALANCE correct answers Ability to balance on one or two feet
Statically and dynamically with eyes open and closed
, Contributes to the ability to play games and sports as well as develop endurance for everyday
thins like sitting upright all day at school
Form & Space, Visual Motor Coordination, and Construction Subtest--->DESIGN COPYING
correct answers evaluates visuo-practic and visuo-construction skills. Assesses both accuracy
and approach in copying designs.
-necessary for understanding how letters fit together for handwriting and for organizing written
work on paper.
Form & Space, Visual Motor Coordination, and Construction Subtest--->POSTURAL PRAXIS
correct answers Imitate positions or postures demonstrated by the examiner
Dancing or playing sports
Form & Space, Visual Motor Coordination, and Construction Subtest--->BILARERAL MOTOR
COORDINATION correct answers Move both arms an both feet together in a smoothly
integrated pattern
Using same side of the body as the same time such as tying shoelaces, riding a bike, or using the
monkey bars in hand over hand fashion.
Form & Space, Visual Motor Coordination, and Construction Subtest--->PRAXIS ON VERBAL
COMMAND correct answers Ability to motor plan body postures from verbal directions without
visual cues
Simon says, or following direction given by a teacher
Form & Space, Visual Motor Coordination, and Construction Subtest--->CONSTRUCTIONAL
PRAXIS correct answers measures the child's ability to relate objects to each other in 3D.
Involves visual spatial understanding and motor planning to replicate simple and complex block
structures. Involves visual spatial understanding and motor planning to replicate simple and
complex block structures. Involves ideation, conceptualization, space perception. and planning.
-needed to build with construction toys, making a sandwich, sew from a pattern, or build models.
Form & Space, Visual Motor Coordination, and Construction Subtest--->POSTROTARY
NYSTAGMUS correct answers Integrity of a relatively discrete vestibular-ocular reflex
following rotation.
Only reflexive test in the SIPT
Orient themselves upright against gravity, their ability to stay alert, and how they combine
sensory information to understand where they are in space.
