Figural Abilities
These scores represent figural-spatial
abilities. These abilities are not exercised
in school as much as the symbolic and
semantic abilities, but figural abilities are
critical for many aspects of living and for
many careers. These abilities should not
be ignored.
Symbolic Abilities
These scores represent symbolic abilities.
These abilities are not emphasized in
school as much as semantic abilities, but
they are important for arithmetic,
mathematics, spelling, and some aspects
of reading -- in fact, any activity that
requires processing notational
information. These abilities are important
to many careers.
Semantic Abilities
These scores represent semantic (verbal)
abilities. These abilities are the
foundation of academic instruction, so
they are the key to school success. They
are also essential for college and many
careers.

The scores in black are vision
indicators on the ALA test. If any of
these are in cautionary range, watch
the student's behavior, especially in
reading, to see if a lack of vision skills
may be causing a problem. If most or
all of the vision indicators are in the
Cautionary range, a referral to a vision
specialist is recommended.
Note: If there is no bar after the test name, then the test was not taken.
