Multiple-Choice Answer Form Completion Time in Children With Amblyopia and Strabismus

Multiple-Choice Answer Form Completion Time in Children With Amblyopia and Strabismus Key PointsQuestionDo fine motor deficits found in amblyopia and strabismus affect performance on an academic-related motor skill—marking answers with a pencil on a multiple-choice answer form? FindingsIn this cross-sectional study of 85 children, children with amblyopia or strabismus were approximately 28% slower than control children at marking answers on a multiple-choice answer form. MeaningChildren with amblyopia and strabismus may not perform to their full academic potential if they take longer to complete a multiple-choice answer form, which is typically used in timed, standardized tests. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png JAMA Ophthalmology American Medical Association

Abstract

Key PointsQuestionDo fine motor deficits found in amblyopia and strabismus affect performance on an academic-related motor skill—marking answers with a pencil on a multiple-choice answer form? FindingsIn this cross-sectional study of 85 children, children with amblyopia or strabismus were approximately 28% slower than control children at marking answers on a multiple-choice answer form. MeaningChildren with amblyopia and strabismus may not perform to their full academic potential if they take longer to complete a multiple-choice answer form, which is typically used in timed, standardized tests.
