Answer:

Biber Figure Learning Test (Glosser et al., 1989)

  • This visuospatial list learning task consists of 9 black and white geometric designs presented over five trials.
  • Designs were presented one at a time in a fixed order, for three seconds each.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The neuropsychological test you are referring to is likely the Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test (ROCFT).
  • This test involves showing the patient a complex geometric figure (the nine designs) and asking them to copy it.
  • After a short delay, the patient is then asked to recall and draw as much of the figure as they can from memory.
  • The test is used to assess various cognitive functions, including visuospatial abilities, visual memory, and executive functioning.
  • It can be useful in evaluating individuals with neurological or neuropsychological conditions, such as traumatic brain injury or dementia.
