Guidelines are suggested for evaluating the validity and reliability of fine and gross motor scales. In the process of examining three types of validity (domain, construct, discriminant) and two types of reliability (interobserver, decision-making), it was found that there were marked deficiencies in most of the instruments currently available, particularly in the areas of discriminant validity and decision-making reliability. Each psychometric property of the scales was addressed from both scale-developer and user perspectives. An evaluative checklist is generated to assist occupational therapists who need to decide on the quality and appropriateness of a motor behavior scale for specific decision applications.
