The Background Interference Procedure (BIP) is an improved psychological test to discriminate brain damaged and non brain damaged adults. In the present study the efficiency of the BIP was compared to the psychometric standard for children, the Göttinger Formenreproduktions-Test, in a sample of 14 girls and 26 boys between 7 and 13 years with minimal brain dysfunction. The background interference condition increased significantly the error rate for the reproduction of the test items, and the BIP yielded a significant concurrent validity with neurological criteria. In particular, an impaired motor coordination was effectively predicted. It is concluded that the BIP is an efficient psychometric aid for determining the organic contribution to psychiatric syndromes in children.
