Visual Processing - Probable difference - More than others

What the score means: This child responds to things seen ‘probably more than others’. For Visual processing, this means that the child responds ‘frequently’ to ‘occasionally’; children typically respond less often than this to visual experiences in their environment during everyday life.

Since all the cut scores on the Sensory Profile are based on the normal bell curve, a ‘probable difference’ score means that the child responds more than about 84% of peers, about the same as 14% of peers and less than 2% of peers. Go to the Bell Curve illustration to see how this works.
