Pourchot, Leonard; Lanning, Frank

Journal of the Association for the Study of Perception, v14 n1 p6-11 Spr 1979

In this study self-concept, as measured by subjects' self-ratings of mechanical ability, was correlated to scores on the Pourchot Mechanical Manipulation Test of bilateral hand tool dexterity. Significant relationships were found. Subjects, ages 10-84, differed in results by age, sex, and mechanical experience. (SJL)
