Scores/Interpretation:
Standard scores, percentile ranks, age equivalents, and progress scores

The M-FUN can be used to assess children with lower motor-function skills and those with mild, moderate or severe motor impairment.

Benefits

  • Link performance of functional activities to neuromotor foundational abilities.
  • Measure outcomes and track improvement with progress scores.
  • Measure participation using observational checklists in test, home, and classroom environments.
  • Examine a child's ability in the areas of hand function, non-motor visual perceptual abilities, postural abilities and executive function and participation.
  • Monitor growth in motor ability over time with multiple administrations.

Features

Developed in line with the ICF framework, the M-FUN incorporates hands-on activities with items that examine a child's development.

  • Individualized workbook for each child to simulate early school activities, including writing, drawing, tracing, and cutting.
  • Scaled scores, percentile ranks, and age equivalents for fine motor, gross motor, and visual-motor.
  • Strong reliability and validity evidence in both normative and clinical groups, including individuals with mild to severe motor delays.
  • Activities include: Amazing Mazes, Race Car Game, Clay Play, Make a Fish, Bouncing Ball Game.
