Pfeiffer, Jens P.; Pinquart, Martin
Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, v105 n1 p33-44 Jan 2011
This study compared the achievement of developmental tasks by 158 adolescents with visual impairments to that of 158 sighted adolescents. The groups did not differ in the fulfillment of 9 of 11 tasks. However, those with visual impairments were less successful in peer-group integration and forming intimate relationships.
