The main aim of the study was to determine the suitability of diagnostic tools Bruininks-Oseretzky Test of Motor Proficiency Second Edition (BOT-2) using confirmatory factor analysis in children aged 4-7 years in the Czech Republic. The research group consisted of 88 probands aged 4-7 years. The group was made up of children from two primary schools and two kindergartens in Prague. The selectiom was held with the help of quota selection. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis BOT-2 in children in the Czech Republic were compared with the results of original artwork by Bruininks (2005). The monitored parameters were resulting index values phosphite: TLI > 0.95, SPDC < 0.08, CFI > 0.95, or RMSE < 0.08. In the original draft BOT-2 amounted the correlations between manifest variables range from 0.57 to 0.91 for the age group 4-7 years. In the Czech model was the highest correlation 0.91 (between variables "Strength & Agility"). Fit model indicators CFI > 0.95 and RMSE < 0.08 was identical by original artwork and by the Czech model. The results indicated the appropriate model BOT-2 for the age group 4-7 years in the Czech Republic.
