Motor co-ordination testing using Gubbay's tests was carried out on 885 mainstream schoolchildren, broadly representative of national social class distribution, and on 482 children attending Greater Manchester schools for children with moderate learning difficulties. In spite of limited reliability of the tests considerable differences were demonstrated, suggesting that mildly mentally retarded children are also retarded in motor development. This has clear implications for educational planning whether such children are to be educated in special or mainstream schools in future.
使用古贝测试法对885名主流学校儿童进行了运动协调能力测试，这些儿童广泛代表了全国社会阶层分布情况，同时还对482名就读于大曼彻斯特地区为中度学习困难儿童开办学校的儿童进行了测试。尽管测试的可靠性有限，但仍显示出相当大的差异，这表明轻度智力发育迟缓的儿童在运动发育方面也存在迟缓现象。这对于未来这类儿童是在特殊学校还是主流学校接受教育的教育规划具有明确的意义。
