The purposes of this study were to obtain a preliminary description of the sensory integrative and practic abilities of 114 non-delinquent-prone adolescents aged 12 through 18 years and to compare their performances with those of 12 delinquent-prone adolescents with learning problems. Ten of the 17 subtests of the Sensory Integration and Praxis Tests (SIPT) (Ayres, 1989) as well as the Finger Posture Imitation Test (Druker, 1980) and the MacQuarrie Test for Mechanical Ability (MacQuarrie, 1925/1953) were administered to both groups. It was hypothesized that performance on some tests would correlate with age in the non-delinquent-prone adolescents. It was also hypothesized that some delinquent-prone adolescents with learning problems would perform significantly worse on the tests of sensory integrative and practic abilities than would the non-delinquent-prone adolescents. A data analysis indicated that performance on the praxis tests, Manual Form Perception, Graphesthesia, and Bilateral Motor Coordination showed a significant age correlation. The results of this study indicated a difference between the two groups, and it was concluded that the delinquent-prone group performed more poorly on all of the praxis-related tests and on the absolute values of the tests of Postrotary Nystagmus, Standing and Walking Balance, and Bilateral Motor Coordination. Some of the vestibular- and praxis-related tests, therefore, may still provide useful information on children older than 8 years of age.
本研究的目的是初步描述114名12至18岁无犯罪倾向青少年的感觉统合和实践能力，并将他们的表现与12名有学习问题的犯罪倾向青少年的表现进行比较。对两组青少年都进行了感觉统合与实践测试（SIPT）（艾尔斯，1989年）的17个分测试中的10个，以及手指姿势模仿测试（德鲁克，1980年）和麦夸里机械能力测试（麦夸里，1925/1953年）。研究假设，在一些测试中的表现会与无犯罪倾向青少年的年龄相关。还假设一些有学习问题的犯罪倾向青少年在感觉统合和实践能力测试中的表现会比无犯罪倾向青少年显著更差。数据分析表明，实践测试、手动图形感知、触觉识别和双侧运动协调方面的表现与年龄有显著相关性。本研究结果表明两组之间存在差异，得出的结论是，犯罪倾向组在所有与实践相关的测试以及旋转后眼震、站立和行走平衡以及双侧运动协调测试的绝对值方面表现更差。因此，一些与前庭和实践相关的测试可能仍然可以为8岁以上的儿童提供有用信息。
