    The TVPS-3 is a test of visual perception skills that measures several areas without requiring motor involvement. It is used to assess children ages 4-18 with conditions like ASD, ADHD, and learning disabilities.

    The purpose of the TVPS-3 is to give a reliable measure of a child's visual perceptual abilities without requiring motor involvement. It is a performance-based assessment.

    The TVPS-3 measures visual discrimination, visual memory, spatial relationships, form constancy, sequential memory, visual figure ground, and visual closure.
