Abstract: Objective To study the validity of Dynamic Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment for Children (DOTCA-Ch) on the cognitive function of children with cerebral palsy. Methods 30 children with cerebral palsy were assessed with DOTCA-Ch and Chinese Binet Test of Intelligence by trained rehabilitation medicine graduates within 1 week. The correlation between these tests were analyzed. Results The total DOTCA-Ch scores, spatial orientation and thought operation function were strongly correlated with IQ, while spatial perception,praxis and optomotor tissue were slightly correlated with IQ. Conclusion DOTCA-Ch can comprehensively assess the cognitive function of children with cerebral palsy.

Key words: cerebral palsy, Dynamic Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment for Children, Chinese-Binet Test of Intelligence
