Miscue Analysis of Braille Readers.

Sowell, V.; Sledge, A.

Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, v80 n10 p989-92 Dec 1986

The miscues of 22 blind braille readers ages 6-21 were analyzed using Goodman's Reading Miscue Inventory, and compared to those reported for sighted readers. Results revealed greater similarities than differences. For example, print and braille readers had approximately the same proportion of miscues in substitutions, omissions, and insertions.
