  2. Amsler grid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amsler_grid

    Test of. Central visual field. The Amsler grid, used since 1945, is a grid of horizontal and vertical lines used to monitor a person's central visual field. The grid was developed by Marc Amsler, a Swiss ophthalmologist. It is a diagnostic tool that aids in the detection of visual disturbances caused by changes in the retina, particularly the ...

  3. Humphrey visual field analyser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humphrey_Visual_Field_Analyser

    Humphrey field analyser (HFA) is a tool for measuring the human visual field that is commonly used by optometrists, orthoptists and ophthalmologists, particularly for detecting monocular visual field. [1] The results of the analyser identify the type of vision defect. Therefore, it provides information regarding the location of any disease ...

  4. Spatial memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_memory

    In cognitive psychology and neuroscience, spatial memory is a form of memory responsible for the recording and recovery of information needed to plan a course to a location and to recall the location of an object or the occurrence of an event. [1] Spatial memory is necessary for orientation in space. [2][3] Spatial memory can also be divided ...

  5. Pattern recognition (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_recognition...

    Pattern recognition occurs when information from the environment is received and entered into short-term memory, causing automatic activation of a specific content of long-term memory. An example of this is learning the alphabet in order. When a carer repeats "A, B, C" multiple times to a child, the child, using pattern recognition, says "C ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodcock–Johnson_Tests_of...

    The Cattell–Horn–Carroll theory factors that this test examines are based on 9 broad stratum abilities, although the test is able to produce 20 scores [4] only seven of these broad abilities are more commonly measured: comprehension-knowledge (Gc), fluid reasoning (Gf), short-term memory (Gsm), processing speed (Gs), auditory processing (Ga), visual-spatial ability (Gv), and long-term ...

  7. Block design test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_design_test

    A block design test is a subtest on many IQ test batteries used as part of assessment of human intelligence. It is thought to tap spatial visualization ability and motor skill. The test-taker uses hand movements to rearrange blocks that have various color patterns on different sides to match a pattern. The items in a block design test can be ...

  8. Visuospatial function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visuospatial_function

    Visuospatial function. In cognitive psychology, visuospatial function refers to cognitive processes necessary to "identify, integrate, and analyze space and visual form, details, structure and spatial relations" in more than one dimension. [1] Visuospatial skills are needed for movement, depth and distance perception, and spatial navigation. [1]

  9. Spatial visualization ability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_visualization_ability

    Spatial visualization ability. Spatial visualization ability or visual-spatial ability is the ability to mentally manipulate 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional figures. It is typically measured with simple cognitive tests and is predictive of user performance with some kinds of user interfaces.
