Peer reviewedHayes, Virginia; Reeve, Gilmour T. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
This study examined the use of visual feedback (VF) by typists at various skill levels. Subjects performed typing trials under four conditions: unrestricted VF, VF for response confirmation, VF for response guidance, and restricted VF. Results suggest similar use of visual feedback by typists of different skill levels. (Author/SJL)

Peer reviewedTurati, Chiara; Simion, Francesca – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2002
Four experiments investigated newborns' ability to discriminate, recognize, and learn visual information embedded in the schematic face-like patterns preferred at birth. Results indicated that newborns discriminated face-like stimuli relying on their internal features and recognized a perceptual invariance between face-like configurations in…

Attention and working memory limitations set strict limits on visual representations, yet researchers have little appreciation of how these limits constrain the acquisition of information in ongoing visually guided behavior. Subjects performed a brick sorting task in a virtual environment. A change was made to 1 of the features of the brick being…

Peer reviewedPauen, Sabina – Child Development, 2002
Two studies examined whether infants' category discrimination in an object-examination task was based solely on an ad hoc analysis of perceptual similarities among the experimental stimuli. Findings indicated that 10- to 11-month- olds' responses varied systematically only with the presence of a category change, but not with the degree of…

This paper reports on a study which was conducted to determine the impact of color on learning. The entire seventh-grade class from a Midwest junior high school was used in the study. Each student was randomly assigned into one of four treatment groups: (1) color-cued presentation, color-cued assessment; (2) color-cued presentation, black/white…

Schmitt, Terry Lyndell – 1978
A review of the literature on the spatial functioning of the blind, the results of a questionnaire of 75 sighted college students and their parents, and results of a study of 87 blind and seeing adults' performance on three spatial tasks are presented. The review suggested that adventitiously blind individuals perform better than congenitally…
