A Taxonomy for Mannerisms of Blind Children.

Eichel, Valerie J.

Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, v73 n5 p167-78 May 1979

The investigation involving 24 blind children (2-11 years old) set out to develop and validate a coding procedure which employed a set of 34 descriptors with their corresponding definitions. The use of the taxonomy enabled a detailed, systematic study of manneristic behavior in blind children. (Author/SBH)
