Sooze2 Report post Posted March 11, 2009 The teacher calls it a Lucidity test. My daughter age 6 has started it, its done over a few sessions. In a couple of the parts she scored below the 5th centile - visual spatial memory and auditory sequential memory plus and couple of others. On one part she was on the 100th centile. The PSA is putting her down for a heaering test and I need to take her for a sight test. I have the printout of the one DS did when he was 8 and he was below 40 on all, below 10 on most and didn't understand how to do one of the tests. So if daughter has problems with visual spatial memory and auditory sequential memory what does that mean, I don't want to go jumping to any conclusions but its not too good is it? I think the test is for dyslexia. Just thought I'd ask the experts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coolblue Report post Posted March 18, 2009 sight test will be a waste of time - you need a visual processing test And an auditory processing test. My son (10) has just done the TAPS test and has scored reasonably well on some tests and couldn't even do others. The NHS APD assessment is due to roll out over the next couple of years.

Sue The audiologist at my dd's recent hearing test told us that there are no tests at present to determine auditory processing problems!!! Now not a happy bunny!
