Spatial knowledge in blind and sighted children
Article Abstract:
Assessment of the performance of two sets of 36 sighted and six congenitally blind children to a navigation and a mapping task revealed direct correlations between mapping ability of the sighted children and age. While the blind children matched the sighted samples in most measures of spatial location, their evaluation of final positions was determined to be relatively deficient in accuracy.
