Wota2: Water Orientation Test Alyn 2

This document contains an aquatic evaluation test called the Wota2 Water Orientation Test Alyn 2. The test assesses a person's mental adjustment to water, balance control and movement skills, and swimming abilities based on 27 items. Each item is scored on a scale of 0 to 3, with 0 indicating the person does not perform the task and 3 indicating independent performance. The total score is calculated and can be adjusted if needed. The evaluation includes sections for graded evaluation of each item, as well as spaces to record the swimmer's name, date of birth, instructor's name and date, and any relevant diagnosis.
