Johnson Metheny Test battery  Was Developed By Metheny In 1938 Which Was An Upgraded Version Of the Johnson Educability Test in 1932. The Johnson Battery Test, Which Consists Of Ten Items, Was Designed To Test Neuromuscular Skill Capability, Methney Analyzed The Examination In 1938 And Eliminate Six Items of the Test Because, In His Analysis Of The Johnson Test, he Discovered That, For Boys, The Correlation Between The Four Test Results And The Overall Johnson Score Was 0.98 For Boys And 0.93 For Girls Who Learned Trembling Feats. A Correlation Of 0.86 Was Found Between The Overall Johnson Score And The Combination Of Three Johnson Items For Girls. Metheny Was Able To Simplify The Mat Used To Administer The Test By Removing Six Of The Original Johnson Items.
The Johnson Metheny Test Battery consists of Four Motor Stunts Listed Below:
