Les tests de mémoire ont été surtout appliqués comme des épreuves cliniques, tels le test de rétention visuelle de Benton [...] ou les tests de Rey. [...] Arthur L. Benton a construit [...] un test de rétention visuelle [...] [qui] comportait initialement dix planches par forme, contenant une ou plusieurs figures géométriques simples [...] Chaque planche est exposée en dix secondes au patient qui est ensuite invité à dessiner ce qu'il a vu sur la planche [...]. Il s’agit donc d’un test de performance qui inclut une perception spatiale, une mémorisation immédiate et une reproduction de dessin qui met en jeu les capacités visuelles et motrices [...]; la notation se fonde sur le nombre de cartons correctement reproduits et le nombre d’erreurs [...] 2, record 2, French, - test%20de%20r%C3%A9tention%20visuelle%20de%20Benton
