VMI skills develop sequentially, and the Beery VMI adheres to this developmental sequence 33, 34. Quickshifts have been used to address a wide range of functional or sensorimotor challenges including (but not limited to): sensory modulation. Therapists could combine two separate objectives (postural movement and bilateral motor integration) of intervention in an activity to improve the adaptive skills based on the vestibular-proprioceptive integration. Occupational therapy practitioners utilize the Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual Motor Integration (Beery VMI) to assess VMI in children. The factor structure fit the theoretical conceptualization, classifying postural movement and bilateral motor integration together in the same category. Postural movement was highly correlated with the bilateral motor integration. 44. For bilateral motor integration, the measures chosen were the Rolling Pin Activity, Jump and Turn, Diadokokinesis, Drumming, and Upper Extremity Control from the DeGangi-Berk Test of Sensory Integration, and Cross the Midline in Southern California Sensory Integration Tests (SCSIT). This is a program that can be purchased by parents for use in the home. The goal is to improve function 6 in auditory, visual, vestibular, motor, cognitive and emotional areas. It’s crucial since many common activities, including as walking, chopping, catching balls, and playing, include the use of both sides of our bodies. This therapeutic technique combines sound stimulation with balance, movement and visual motor activities. Structural equation modeling was applied to assess the relation between measures tapping postural movement and bilateral motor integration: for postural movement, the measures involve the Monkey Task, Side-Sit Co-contraction, Prone on Elbows, Wheelbarrow Walk, Airplane, and Scooter Board Co-contraction from the DeGangi-Berk Test of Sensory Integration, and Standing Balance with Eyes Closed/Opened in Southern California Sensory Integration Tests. The capacity to utilize both sides of the body at the same time is known as bilateral coordination or bilateral integration. Participants in this study were 61 Chinese children ages 48 to 70 months. The goal of this study was to examine the relationship between the validity of postural movement and bilateral motor integration in terms of sensory integration theory.
