Blindfolded adults use mental transformation strategies for spatial scaling of tactile maps

Abstract The current study tested strategies of spatial scaling in the haptic domain. Blindfolded adults (N = 31, aged 20–24 years) were presented with an embossed graphic including a target and asked to encode a target location on this map, imagine this map at a given scale, and to localize a targe...
