Direct linkVeispak, Anneli; Boets, Bart; Ghesquiere, Pol – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2013
The relations between reading, auditory, speech, phonological and tactile spatial processing are investigated in a Dutch speaking sample of blind braille readers as compared to sighted print readers. Performance is assessed in blind and sighted children and adults. Regarding phonological ability, braille readers perform equally well compared to…

Papadopoulos, Konstantinos; Koustriava, Eleni – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2011
The aim of this study is to examine the performance in coding and representing of near-space in relation to vision status (blindness vs. normal vision) and sensory modality (touch vs. vision). Forty-eight children and teenagers participated. Sixteen of the participants were totally blind or had only light perception, 16 were blindfolded sighted…

Veispak, Anneli; Boets, Bart; Mannamaa, Mairi; Ghesquiere, Pol – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2012
Similar to many sighted children who struggle with learning to read, a proportion of blind children have specific difficulties related to reading braille which cannot be easily explained. A lot of research has been conducted to investigate the perceptual and cognitive processes behind (impairments in) print reading. Very few studies, however, have…

The aim of the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study was to investigate brain activation associated with active and passive movements, and tactile stimulation in 17 children with right-sided unilateral cerebral palsy (CP), compared to 19 typically developing children (TD). The active movements consisted of repetitive opening and…

Vinter, Annie; Fernandes, Viviane; Orlandi, Oriana; Morgan, Pascal – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2012
The aim of the present study was to compare the types of exploratory procedures employed by children when exploring bidimensional tactile patterns and correlate the use of these procedures with the children's shape drawing performance. 18 early blind children, 20 children with low vision and 24 age-matched blindfolded sighted children aged…

Poppes, P.; van der Putten, A. J. J.; Vlaskamp, C. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2010
The main goals of this study were to determine the prevalence, frequency and severity of challenging behaviour in people with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD). Because in the literature several health problems and sensory impairments are associated with the onset and existence of challenging behaviour, this relationship was…
