In the Block Design task, what is required of the child?

In the Block Design task of the WISC-V, the child is required to re-create a specific design using two-color blocks. This task assesses the child's visual-spatial abilities and problem-solving skills. The child is shown a design made up of blocks and must use their reasoning skills to match the design by arranging their own blocks accordingly. This helps to evaluate their ability to visualize spatial relationships and organize the blocks in a way that accurately reflects the provided model. The focus is primarily on how well the child can manipulate the blocks to replicate the design as accurately as possible, which is fundamental to understanding their cognitive processing in visual tasks.
