Peer reviewedDodds, A. G.; Davis, D. P. – Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, 1989
The article describes the development of a visual assessment and training program designed to predict initial and final low-vision mobility performance. The program's tasks were determined to be better predictors of visual performance than existing clinical measures, and task learning could be transferred to real-life mobility situations.…

Peer reviewedDodds, Allan G.; Davis, Denis P. – International Journal of Rehabilitation Research, 1987
To develop a battery of tasks to predict and improve mobility performance, a series of functional vision tasks (texural shearing, degraded images, embedded figures, and parafoveal attention) were generated by a microcomputer. Sixty visually impaired subjects given either computerized task training or real-life training improved their low vision…
