Social Cognition in Children with Visual Impairments.
Pring, Linda; Dewart, Hazel; Brockbank, Margaret
Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, v92 n11 p754-68 Nov 1998
Comparison of 16 children (ages 9 to 12) with visual impairment to 16 sighted children found visually impaired children had a poorer understanding than did sighted children of characters in stories, as shown by fewer correct justifications based on mental states. Some subgroup patterns concerning congenital impairments and cognitive style were suggested by the data. (DB)
