Rey–Osterrieth complex figure test (ROCF) is used for research purposes to examine the development of visuo-perceptual organization, visual short-term and long-term memory, as well as executive functions. The aim of this paper is to present the results of research on the application of the ROCF test, and to interpret and compare two cases of application of the ROCF: on subjects from a healthy and psychopathological population. Respondents were selected to be of the same age and gender. From the psychopathological population, a subject with a diagnosis of autistic spectrum was selected. The results confirmed the results of previous research. The healthy subject used a drawing strategy characteristic of people without neuropsychological difficulties, there were no deviations in drawing and sketching. The subject with autism, although functional, on the ROCF test had a severe decline in the ability to plan and organize, as well as the ability to remember relevant visual information, with the use of an inferior drawing strategy
