%X the purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric proprieties of the peabody developmental motor scales ii (pdms-2) (folio; fewell, 2000), using a portuguese sample group. the portuguese version of pdms-2 was applied, according to the manual guidelines of pdms-2, to 540 children, aged 36 to 71 months from fifteen preschools. the results of the confirmatory factor analysis (s-b¦Ö2=3.3, p=.349; cfi =1.0, nfi =.99, nnfi=.99, rmsea =.013) support that the portuguese version presents a model of two factors (fine and gross motor) as does the original version. most of the subtests showed a good internal consistency (¦Á = .76 to .95) and good test-retest reliability (icc = .85 to .95). these findings indicate that the portuguese version pdms-2 is an accurate and valid tool to assess the gross and fine motor skills of portuguese preschoolers.
