An Investigation of the Visual and Tactile Spatial Reasoning Abilities of the Hearing Impaired/Deaf Student.
Hauptman, Anna R. – 1980
Two experiments involving 42 students from the Model Secondary School for the Deaf investigated both the visual and tactile components in the processing of spatial information. Test measures used were the Figures Rotations Test, Group Embedded Figures Test, and Tactile Rotations Test. The study suggested that spatial reasoning is a determining…

Haptic-Visual Shape Matching by Mentally Retarded Children: Exploratory Activity and Complexity Effects.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Davidson, Philip W.; And Others – American Journal of Mental Deficiency, 1980
The results showed that accuracy depended on both stimulus complexity, modality, and mental age, regardless of whether or not the Ss were retarded. The selection of haptic search styles also depended on these factors but, in addition, was influenced by the intellectual status of the children. (Author/DLS)

Comparison of Cross-modal and Intra-modal Form Recognition in Children with Learning Disabilities
Gaines, Beverley J.; Raskin, Larry M. – J Learning Disabilities, 1970
Based on a thesis submitted to the Graduate School of Purdue University by the first author. (Author)

Reading Comprehension and Perception of Sequentially Organized Patterns: Intramodal and Cross-Modal Comparisons.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Payne, M. Carr, Jr.; And Others – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1980
Findings suggested that a deficit in auditory memory rather than cross-modal perception appears to be a factor in poor reading comprehension. (Author/DLS)

Visual and Tactual Integration and Cerebral Dysfunction in Children with Learning Disabilities
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Adams, Jerry – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1978
Performance on visual and tactual form-recognition tasks of 74 learning disabled children (age 6-17 years) with cerebral dysfunction was compared with that of 72 similar children without cerebral dysfunction. (Author)

Central Processing Dysfunctions in Children: A Review of Research.
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Chalfant, James C.; Scheffelin, Margaret A. – 1969
Research on central processing dysfunctions in children is reviewed in three major areas. The first, dysfunctions in the analysis of sensory information, includes auditory, visual, and haptic processing. The second, dysfunction in the synthesis of sensory information, covers multiple stimulus integration and short-term memory. The third area of…

HURLEY, OLIVER L. – 1966
A LITERATURE REVIEW OF SIX KEY CONCEPTS OF PSYCHOLINGUISTIC PROCESSES IS PRESENTED. THE SIX CONCEPTS ARE (1) COGNITIVE GROWTH, (2) PSYCHOLINGUISTIC MODELS SUCH AS THE ILLINOIS TEST OF PSYCHOLINGUISTIC ABILITIES (ITPA), (3) INTERSENSORY INTEGRATION, (4) REMEDIAL TEACHING TECHNIQUES, (5) VISUALIZATION IN INTEGRATIVE TASKS, AND (6) CONCEPTUAL SCHEMA.…
