Perceptual Training and Figure-Ground Performance in Low Vision.

Trudeau, M.; And Others

Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, v84 n5 p204-06 May 1990

Twenty-five older adults with age-related macular degeneration were separated into one of three groups: in-clinic training, take-home-training, or no-training. After testing, results showed that the ability to distinguish figure from ground is an improvable skill with the take-home group improving the most. (Author/DB)
