The purpose of this study was to examine the construct validity and clinical utility of the VMI-6. For this purpose, 91 children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, and ADHD and 91 general children from 6 to 16 years-of-age were tested using VMI-6 and K-WISC-IV. The results are as follows: First, between Visual-Motor Integration Test, Visual Perception Supplementary Test, Motor Coordination Supplementary Test of VMI-6 and 10 subtests of K-WISC-IV, the results proved to be statistically significant in the group of intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, and ADHD. In particular, three subtests of VMI-6 scores showed a high correlation with Full Scale IQ, Perceptual Reasoning Index, Working Memory Index, Block Design, Matrix Reasoning, and Digit Span of K-WISC-IV. Second, each disorder group and general children were classified as per performance Visual-Motor Integration Test, Visual Perception Supplementary Test, and Motor Coordination Supplementary Test. These results showed that construct validity of VMI-6 is useful for examining constructs and for children with intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, and ADHD, VMI-6 was useful in classifying neurological deficits. Finally, the meaning and limitation of this study and suggestions for further study are discussed.
