Performance of Blind Children on Digit-Span Tests.

Hull, T.; Mason, H.

Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, v89 n2 p166-69 Mar-Apr 1995

This article reports the results of digit-span tests administered to 314 children who were visually impaired. Results found that gender, first language, and educational setting had no effect on the children's scores and that the congenitally totally blind children scored higher than did sighted children, whereas those who had had some sight did not.
