Accelerated Acquisition of Classification Skills by Blind Children
Friedman, Judith; Pasnak, Robert
Developmental Psychology, 9, 3, 333-337, Nov 73
Tested the effectiveness of a 120-problem learning set for teaching simple classification skills to blind children, as compared to a general enrichment program administered to a matched control group. The learning set facilitated mastery of classification, indicating that this training can accelerate the acquisition of Piagetian concepts in children hindered by sensory deficits. (DP)
