Penrod, William M.; Petrosko, Joseph
RE:view, v34 n4 p155-64 Win 2003
This study evaluated the ability of 40 blind adults to spatially organize large outdoor places using a verbal response survey and a near space lapboard task. The study found a high correlation between performances on the large outdoor environment with and without sighted guide tasks. The lapboard task also predicted performance in the outdoor environment without a guide. (Contains references.) (DB)
