- The present study used an experimental group design to evaluate the effectiveness of a training program aimed at strengthening visual perceptual skills (visual discrimination, visual remembrance, and visual closure), developed by the researcher which entailed cognitive behavior intervention to develop visual perception. Twelve children with Asperger’s syndrome participated in the study, six children in each group, with an average age of 6 years and six months. All children attended the Future Center for Children with Special Need in Jaramana City. Pre-post evaluations included following tools: Test of visual- Perceptual Skills (TVPS), prepared by Morrison Gardner (Morrison Gardner, 1982) (translated in Arabic by Fathi Abdel Rahim, et al, 1992). Results reveal significant differences 0,05 between pre- and post- measurement at the experimental group in all dimensions of visual perceptual skills (visual discrimination, visual remembrance, visual closure), the total average score for the benefit of pre- measurement as well as, the total average grade in those dimensions combined. The importance of these findings are discussed in relation to statistically significant differences in the post- application at level of significance 0, 05 in all dimensions of visual perceptual skills, as well as total grade to those dimensions together between the experimental and the control group, for the benefit of the experimental group.
