    Area of Science:

    • Developmental psychology
    • Optometry
    • Educational psychology

    Background:

    • Visual perception is crucial for early childhood development and academic success.
    • Existing screening tools may not be sufficiently adapted for specific educational or clinical settings.
    • Early identification of visual perception deficits is essential for targeted interventions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a modified screening version of the Marianne Frostig's Developmental Test of Visual Perception.
    • To provide a practical tool for optometrists, educators, and psychologists.
    • To facilitate the early detection of visual perception problems in kindergarten and first-grade children.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of the Modified Frostig Test, a screening version of the original test.
    • Focus on adapting the test for efficient administration in screening contexts.
    • Targeting kindergarten and first-grade populations.

    Main Results:

    • The Modified Frostig Test offers a viable screening method for visual perception difficulties.
    • The test is designed to be user-friendly for professionals in various fields.
    • It aids in identifying children who may require further visual perception assessment.

    Conclusions:

    • The Modified Frostig Test is a valuable tool for screening visual perception in early elementary students.
    • It supports interdisciplinary collaboration among optometrists, educators, and psychologists.
    • Early screening can lead to timely support and improved developmental outcomes.
