A categorical classification was developed based on the man drawn in the test. Participants who showed homogeneous bilateral representation of body parts were considered to not have personal neglect, whereas those who showed unilateral body parts were considered to have personal neglect. The completed tests were used to blindly categorize the persons with and without personal neglect according to the above definition by two raters for calculating interrater reliability.

Rater A classified all 110 \u201cnormal\u201d participants as being without personal neglect and classified 13 of the 51 participants with stroke as having personal neglect. Participants demonstrating personal neglect showed significantly poorer ADL performance than did those without personal neglect. ADL performance was also found to be significantly related to somatosensation, motor status of the impaired limbs, and muscle strength of the sound limbs. However, even after controlling the effect of these variables by partial correlation, personal neglect was still highly related to ADL performance.<\/jats:italic>\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    Conclusion.\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">The Draw-A-Man Test is a reliable and valid tool for discriminating clients with personal neglect from those without.<\/jats:italic>\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5014\/ajot.54.4.391","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,1,5]],"date-time":"2011-01-05T15:24:13Z","timestamp":1294241053000},"page":"391-397","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Validating the Draw-A-Man Test as a Personal Neglect Test"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"54","author":[{"given":"Mei-Jin","family":"Chen-Sea","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Mei-Jin Chen-Sea, ScD, OTR\/L, is Associate Professor, School of Occupational Therapy, Medical College, National Cheng Kung University, No. 1, Ta-Hsueh Road, Tainan, Taiwan, ROC, 701;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2000,7,1]]},"container-title":["American Journal of Occupational Therapy"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.5014\/ajot.54.4.391","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/research.aota.org\/ajot\/article-pdf\/54\/4\/391\/64556\/391.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.5014\/ajot.54.4.391","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,27]],"date-time":"2026-07-27T12:34:23Z","timestamp":1785155663000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.5014\/ajot.54.4.391"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2000,7]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2000,7]]}},"alternative-id":["10.5014\/ajot.54.4.391"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5014\/ajot.54.4.391","relation":{},"ISSN":["1943-7676","1943-7676"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1943-7676","type":"print"},{"value":"1943-7676","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2000,7]]}}}
