Hand Function among Blind, Visually Impaired and Visually/Multihandicapped Children.

Rogow, Sally M.

Canadian Journal for Exceptional Children, v3 n2 p51-55 Win 1986

Responses of itinerant, resource room, and residential school teachers to a questionnaire regarding adaptive hand function of blind, visually-impaired, and visually/multiply-handicapped 2- to 19-year-olds (N=148) indicated that physiological integrity was not a sufficient condition for development of adaptive hand function, suggesting that manual activities are also necessary.
