Minnesota Paper Form Board Test is said to test “imagery capacity” [1], “spatial visualization”[2],“mental visualization skills” [3] “part–whole relationship skills” [4] and “the ability of an individual to visualize and manipulate objects in space”[5].
The test consists of five figures and one of the figures displayed in disarranged parts. The subject has to decide which of the figures displays the pieces joined together.
