Direct linkO'Riordan, Michelle; Passetti, Filippo – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2006
Recent studies have suggested that unusual visual processing in autism might stem from enhanced visual discrimination. Although there are also many anecdotal reports of auditory and tactile processing disturbances in autism these have received comparatively little attention. It is possible that the enhanced discrimination ability in vision in…

Peer reviewedGottfried, Allen W.; And Others – Child Development, 1977
This study investigated infants' differential responding to novel and familiar stimuli after familiarization in a different sensory modality. Results showed that infants gain information about the shape of objects from their oral experience with them and that this information can be transferred to the visual modality. (Author/JMB)

Peer reviewedGottfried, Allen W.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1978
Infants ranging from 6 to 12 months were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: (1) allowed to look at a specified object, (2) allowed to look at and manipulate it, or (3) allowed to look at the object and to manipulate the transparent box in which it was encased. (JMB)

Four papers detailing the Fuller Reading System and its successful use with low-IQ subjects and one paper discussing the System and the results of using it are presented in this collection. The subjects were 23 residents of Maryland's principal institution for the retarded. They ranged in age from eleven to 51 years and in Stanford-Binet IQ from…

Peer reviewedTyrrell, Donald J. – Child Development, 1977
Analysis of 40 first-grade children's performance on two discrimination learning problems revealed that children do transfer dimensional information between the visual and tactual modalities. (Author/JMB)

Peer reviewedBjorklund, David F.; And Others – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1978
Thirty-nine fourth grade children exposed to a haptic (active touch) match-to-sample task made significantly fewer post-test errors, relative to control subjects, on a visual problem-soving task. (Author/PHR)

Millar, Susanna; Al-Attar, Zainab – Brain and Cognition, 2005
We investigate how vision affects haptic performance when task-relevant visual cues are reduced or excluded. The task was to remember the spatial location of six landmarks that were explored by touch in a tactile map. Here, we use specially designed spectacles that simulate residual peripheral vision, tunnel vision, diffuse light perception, and…

Peer reviewedCronin, Virginia – Developmental Psychology, 1973
Study shows that there are differences in the information-processing capacities of touch and vision and that these differences are influenced by a variety of factors. (Author)

Peer reviewedWong, Tong S. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1979
Examines the haptic judgments of an L figure across the ages of 6, 7, 9, 11, 12, 13, and 20 years. Significant differences in the amount of haptic illusion were found. (MP)

Somewhere in between Touch and Vision: In Search of a Meaningful Art Education for Blind Individuals
Coster, Karin; Loots, Gerrit – International Journal of Art and Design Education, 2004
This article offers a theoretical framework of a meaningful art education for blind people. Existing literature focuses on the interaction between the artwork and the blind person. This text describes this aesthetic encounter which is complex due to tactile sensations, individual differences of the non-sighted viewer and specific features of the…

Intraub, Helene – Cognition, 2004
Viewers who study photographs of scenes tend to remember having seen beyond the boundaries of the view ["boundary extension"; J. Exp. Psychol. Learn. Mem. Cogn. 15 (1989) 179]. Is this a fundamental aspect of scene representation? Forty undergraduates explored bounded regions of six common (3D) scenes, visually or haptically (while blindfolded)…

Leslie, Gail, Ed. – National Information Clearinghouse on Children Who Are Deaf-Blind, 2006
This publication presents several projects that support children who are deaf-blind. These projects are: (1) Learning To Learn; (2) Project SALUTE; (3) Project SPARKLE; (4) Bringing It All Back Home; (5) Project PRIIDE; and (6) Including Students With Deafblindness In Large Scale Assessment Systems. Each project lists components, key practices,…

Heinze, Betty L. – 1978
The tactile-kinesthetic approach to spelling provides a practical teaching device for use with both disabled learners and moderately poor spellers who need to learn a technical or professional vocabulary. This multisensory approach to learning teaches to the student's strengths and places emphasis on finger contact, muscle movement, saying and…

Peer reviewedPring, Linda – British Journal of Psychology, 1982
Conducted two experiments to investigate phonological and tactual coding in Braille reading by blind children. Results revealed a phonological effect in blind children's reading of single words. Also direct lexical access, from tactual input, proceeded with the same facility for the blind as does visual input for the sighted. (Author)
