Peer reviewedO'Donnell, L. M.; Smith, A. J. – Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, 1994
This article describes the physiological mechanisms involved in three-dimensional depth perception and presents a variety of distance and depth cues and strategies for detecting and estimating curbs and steps for individuals with impaired vision. (Author/DB)

Direct linkAvraamides, Marios N.; Loomis, Jack M.; Klatzky, Roberta L.; Golledge, Reginald G. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2004
Past research (e.g., J. M. Loomis, Y. Lippa, R. L. Klatzky, & R. G. Golledge, 2002) has indicated that spatial representations derived from spatial language can function equivalently to those derived from perception. The authors tested functional equivalence for reporting spatial relations that were not explicitly stated during learning.…

Active Exploration of the Environment by Young Children with Low Vision: A Review of the Literature.
Peer reviewedO'Donnell, L. M.; Livingston, R. I. – Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, 1991
Young children with low vision tend to experience delays in cognitive development, motor development, and social skills because of insufficient motivation and opportunities to explore their environments actively. This literature review explores the resulting difficulties in acquiring practical knowledge and spatial/environmental concepts,…
