Effects of Passive Physical Exercise on Peripheral Vision in Muscular Dystrophic Children.
Eickelberg, Warren; And Others
Perceptual and Motor Skills, v56 n1 p167-70 Feb 1983
The effects of passive exercise of the extremities on peripheral vision of muscular dystrophic children aged 9 to 13 years was investigated. Compared to control subjects, those who experienced six minutes of passive exercise evidenced increased peripheral vision. Curriculum revisions for muscular dystrophic children indicate the importance of activity in facilitating learning. (Author/RD)
