Abstract
The Bender-Gestalt test originated in 1936 with Lauretta Bender for evaluat ing perceptual and motor development of children 4 to 11 yr. old. Koppitz ( 1964) developed a scoring system for the test. Lacks (1984) contributed nor mative data for testing adults. Seven studies since Lacks' which have contr ibuted to normative data of adults' responses to the Bender-Gestalt are rev iewed here.
