The Effect of Spatial Tasks on Visually Impaired Peoples' Wayfinding Abilities

In: Journal of visual impairment & blindness: JVIB, Band 96, Heft 6, S. 407-419

Abstract

Thirty-eight people with visual impairments learned a 483-meter novel route through a university campus in four groups: verbalization, modeling, pointing, and control. The performance of all four groups improved with greater experience of the route, but the modeling group improved more than did the control group.
