  1. Visual Perceptual Skills

  2. Visual perception refers to group of visual cognitive skills used for extracting and organizing visual information from the environment and integrating it with other sensory modalities and higher cognitive functions.

  3. Visual Processing is further defined as active process of locating and extracting information from the environment, comprising the following processes:

  4. Discrimination • Memory • Closure • Visual Spatial Relationships • Visual Motor Integration • Visual Association • Figure-Ground Discrimination

  5. Two Other Aspects of Visual Perception Relevant to Orientation and Mobility and Facilitation of Vision in Daily Life: • Depth Perception • Color Perception

  6. Assessment of various perceptual abilities will yield an estimate of how visual impairment influences day to day interactions with the environment, and, to help determine the type of learning media that will be most meaningful to the student. Rationale

  7. Before completing Visual Perceptual Skills protocol, administer the DIVE, the protocol for assessment and comparison of visual behaviors with cognitive, social and motor processes.

  8. Administration of DIVE Protocol (Checklist) Use the DIVE (Developmental Inventory of Visual Efficiency) as a developmental guide to the types and levels of perceptual abilities that are expected at various age levels.

  9. Visual Perceptual Skills Complete the following items based on review of items found on DIVE appropriate to student’s developmental functioning level. All processes may not be addressed – depending on developmental level. Each process is scored Passed (P), Emerging (E), or Absent (A) relative to student’s developmental range of functioning.

  10. Visual Perceptual Skills • Depth • Visual Closure • Visual Discrimination • Social • Color • Form • Size • Pattern • Visual Association • Visual Memory • Visual Sequencing • Figure-Ground Relationships • Eye-Hand Integration
