The purpose of this study is to analyze Korean children`s visual perceptual skills. For the purpose, this study administered the tests to 620 children aged between 4 and 12 in South Korea. As a test instrument, TVPS-R was used. Based on the test results, this study analyzed the characteristics of Korean children`s visual perceptual skills as follows. Sex differences in visual perceptual skills were not seen. Regional differences in visual perceptual skills were seen only in visual discrimination subtest. In age of 4~7, visual perceptual skills improved rapidly but in age of 8~11 improved gradually. Conclusions of this study are as follows: there are no sex differences in visual perceptual skills but regional differences in specific visual perceptual skills. Visual perceptual skills improve with age. In particular, visual perceptual skills develop greatly in preschool period.
