Students with intellectual disabilities present a diverse neuropsychological profile marked by age, etiology, or context mediation. The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between three neuropsychological variables: perceptual organization, visual memory, and basic motor patterns. For this, descriptive and correlational research was carried out. The sample chosen was made up of a total of 30 students with ID from the city of Esmeraldas. Their ages fluctuated between 8 and 17 years. Two tests were applied, the Rey Complex Figure test (1967) and the Neuromotor Development Observation Test (EVANM). The results showed that students with intellectual disabilities have significant limitations in their perceptual organization skills, visual memory, and motor patterns. A high positive relationship was found between visual perceptual organization and visual memory. However, the overall assessment of these two variables with the variable of motor patterns was much lower.
