The Movement Assessment Battery for Children – Second Edition (Movement ABC)

The Movement ABC-2 is one of the most frequently used tests of motor impairment. It’s four primary uses are:
 Identify children who are significantly behind their peers in motor development
 Assist in planning an intervention program in either a school or clinical setting
 Measure change as a result of intervention
 Serve as a measurement instrument in research involving motor development

The Movement ABC-2 Test is a standardised test that required a child to perform a series of motor tasks in a
strictly specified way. In addition, it provided qualitative data on how the child approaches and performs the
tasks. The test is divided into three ages bands; AB-1: 3-6 years, AB-2: 7-10 years and AB-3: 11-16 years.
Within each age band the test is grouped into eight task items udder three headings: Manual Dexterity, Aiming
and Catching and Balance.
