Motometry
With motometry , motor characteristics are examined with the help of objective performance tests in motor diagnostics .
These characteristics are recorded both quantitatively (frequency, time, height or width) and qualitatively (clearly defined criteria according to which the execution can be described as "correct").
Since a child often avoids demands in everyday situations and in free movement games, which it does not feel able to cope with, motor weaknesses that cannot be directly recognized only become visible in specific test situations. Furthermore, only motometric methods enable an objective comparison with other children of the same age group.
Motometric methods are therefore superior to other motor diagnostic methods in terms of reliability, objectivity and validity of the detection of motor skills.
