Early screening and remedial training of visual perception problems Visual perception is a basic prerequisite for learning and for developing social skills. Difficulties with face and object recognition has been shown to be a marker for ADHS and general learning impairment. Starting with a simple color recognition task, the increasingly difficult tasks give an indication where developmental difficulties could be located. The learning potential can be evaluated by observing how a child handles different strategies for distinguishing between relevant and irrelevant parts of an object or a face. |

Target Group |
Children from 4 years up. At the age of 9 a normal child is able to do all the 30 games. Adults with Asperger syndrome have been shown to perform below the level of an 9 year old child at these tasks. ADHS is likely to show up by reduced scores in games asking for simultaneous observation of more than one detail at a time. |
