DIFFERENCES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF TACTILE FUNCTIONS IN PARTIALLY SIGHTED CHILDREN IN RELATION TO CATEGORY AND TYPE OF VISUAL IMPAIRMENT
The aim of this study was to examine the differences in the development of tactile functions in visually impaired (amblyopic) children in relation to the category and type of visual impairment. In the study, 30 respondents with visual impairment, aged 7-13 and of both genders were examined. Tactile...

description | The aim of this study was to examine the differences in the development of tactile functions in visually impaired (amblyopic) children in relation to the category and type of visual impairment. In the study, 30 respondents with visual
impairment, aged 7-13 and of both genders were examined. Tactile functions assessment was performed using the LuriaNebraska Tactile Functions Assessment Scale ('C3'). A t-test was used to examine the significance of arithmetic mean
differences. With respect to the category of visual impairment, it was found that there were statistically significant differences in arithmetic means on three variables of tactile perception. Respondents have equally developed tactile functions
in relation to the type of visual impairment. |
