includes two additional tests: Visual Perception and Motor Coordination, which can be applied independently.
The VMI test is considered more valid and more investigation of its kind.
Components: Manual, Format (VMI) Full-format Visual Perception, Motor Coordination Form, Short Form and portfolios.
Application: Individual, collective.
Time: 10 to 15 minutes.
Rate: Children from 3 to 17 years 11 months old.
