The present review answers questions fundamental to an accurate conception of motor development in the retarded child: How do the retarded compare with intellectually normal children on tests of ...motor ability?

The answers indicate that physical development is one area where the retarded child can achieve a degree of normalcy that could generalize widely in the form of increased motivation and self confidence.
