Lillie, Madelynn A.; Tiger, Jeffrey H. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2019
Previous researchers have taught sighted adults to match braille sample stimuli to print comparisons in a matching-to-sample (MTS) format and assessed the emergence of other braille repertoires, such as transcribing and reading braille following this training. Although participants learned to match to sample with braille, they displayed limited…

Martiniello, Natalina; Barlow, Meaghan; Wittich, Walter – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2022
Tactile, motor and cognitive capacities decline with age, but little is known about how this relates to braille reading outcomes. This study investigated correlates of braille reading speed among working-age and older adults. Texts were read in two modes (oral/silent) and two media (paper/electronic braille display) by 46 blind adults (age range…
