Sensory Integration and Praxis Tests (SIPT)

Sensory Integration and Praxis Tests (SIPT) A. Jean Ayres, Ph.D.

The Sensory Integration and Praxis Tests (SIPT) measure the sensory integration processes that underlie learning and behavior. By showing you how children organize and respond to sensory input, SIPT helps pinpoint specific organic problems associated with learning disabilities, emotional disorders, and minimal brain dysfunction.

SIPT measures visual, tactile, and kinesthetic perception as well as motor performance. It is composed of 17 brief tests, which are listed with the pricing information below.

The entire battery can be given in 2 hours. And any of the individual tests can be administered separately in about 10 minutes. Norms are provided for each testbased on a national sample of more than 2,000 children between the ages of 4 years and 8 years, 11 months.

All SIPT tests are computer scored, using prepaid Mail-In Protocol Sheets, the SIPT Disk or CD. Any combination of the 17 tests can be scoredyou don\’t need to administer the entire battery. For each child tested, you\’ll receive a detailed report explaining SIPT results.

The SIPT scoring program now gives you added flexibility in administering all or part of the battery. In addition to scoring all 17 SIPT tests, the latest version of the scoring program allows you to administer a partial test battery without wasting the cost of unused tests. Each disk contains a counter with 150 credits, and each credit allows you to score one SIPT test. If you administer one test, the counter will reduce your credits by one unit. If you administer 16 tests, or the complete battery of 17 tests, the counter will reduce your credits by only 15 units. Therefore, each disk can score 10 complete test batteries or 150 individual tests.

Each 10-use Disk or CD, for example, contains a counter with 150 credits, and each credit allows you to score one SIPT test. If you administer one test, the counter will reduce your credits by one unit. If you administer 16 tests, or the complete battery of 17 subtests, the counter will reduce your credits by only 15 units. Therefore, each 10-use Disk or CD can score 10 complete test batteries or 150 individual tests.

NOTE: SIPT interpretation requires professional training. Orders should indicate the name and professional qualifications of the individual responsible for SIPT use.
