Comparison of Sign versus Verbal Symbol Training in Retarded Adults.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Penner, Kandace A.; Williams, William N. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
The relationship between sign and verbal learning was explored using 10 severely mentally retarded adults. They were taught color labels in sign, verbal, or sign and verbal groups. Sign labels tended to be learned more efficiently; combined sign and verbal training improved verbal learning but not sign learning. (Author/CM)
