title: Relationships as assessed by canonical correlation between perceptual-motor and intellectual abilities for pre-school and early elementary age children.
abstract: The relationship between 3 perceptual-motor tasks and 2 measures of academic achievement was assessed using canonical correlation. Ss were 113 children from kindergarten through third grade. A significant canonical correlation existed for the kindergarten, first, and second grade group, but the correlation for third graders was not statistically significant. There was a decreasing relationship between the perceptual-motor and intellectual domains as age increased.
