IPPTP-R
The “International Physical Performance Test Profile – Revised” (IPPTP-R) is a further development of the IPPTP, which was published in 1985 by the World Council for Sport Science (ICSSPE) under the authorship of Prof. Dr. Klaus Bös and Prof. Dr. Heinz Mechling. The German Motor Test 6–18 (GMT 6–18) is a further development of the “International Physical Performance Test Profile” (IPPTP) and covers all dimensions of motor performance. The decisive advantage is that the GMT 6–18 is web-based and that the test data flow anonymously into a database (MO|RE data), which was developed with the help of funding from the German Research Foundation.
The test profile enables the measurement and evaluation of motor skills in 6-18 year old children and adolescents.
On this website you will find information on the test items and on how to perform and evaluate the test. In addition, you will find a number of aids for the test implementation in the download area. Detailed information on the creation of the IPPTP-R, exact descriptions of the test items and instructions for test implementation can be found in the test manual.
Microsite of the German Motor Test
We are pleased to present the relaunch of the German Motor Test - now even more child-friendly and informative!
The German Motor Test uses eight simple tasks to measure the physical fitness of children and adolescents between the ages of 6 and 18. It thus helps to identify deficits in good time and to initiate targeted support measures.
With a child-friendly presentation, a new homepage and an appealing image film, a new version of this important tool for measuring motor performance has been designed.
The equally brand new image film highlights the importance of motor development and the benefits of the German Motor Test. The film conveys not only the commitment to promoting children's motor skills, but also the passion behind this project.
We invite you to visit the updated homepage at www.deutscher-motorik-test.de. There you will not only find detailed information about the test and its scientific background, but also help for future test administrators to support them in the implementation in the best possible way.
