Entering BOT-2 Scores

T   The BOT™-2 is an individually administered test that uses engaging, goal-directed activities to measure a wide array of motor skills in individuals ages 4 through 21. It is designed to provide practitioners such as occupational therapists, physical therapists, developmental adaptive physical education teachers, and researchers, among others, with a reliable and efficient measure of fine and gross motor control skills.

     For BOT-2, there is a Demographics tab and a Scores tab.
