The Effect of Motor Dependent/Independent Visual Perception Training on Visual-Motor Integration and Fine Skills 7-8-year-old Children: Retest Movement Hypothesis

Motor skill deficits are prevalent among children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) however, little is known about the underlying mechanism of these deficits. In response to this gap, study investigated how visual perception (VP) and visual-motor integration (VMI) associated motor skills youth ASD. Sixty-seven individuals ASD sixty-seven age- gender-matched without (age range: 9.83–15.13 year...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of low-vision rehabilitation in 2 cohorts derived from the Veterans Affairs Low-Vision Intervention Trial. METHODS In a prospective study, we observed 44 participants randomly assigned to outpatient low-vision rehabilitation who did not receive additional treatment after the trial ended at 4-month follow-up and 56 participants randomly assigned to the w...

How does speech production relate to speech perception? To investigate the most suitable perceptual factors to predict the production skills of a speaker, we determined the visual acuity for speech movements, the auditory acuity for speech sounds, and the haptic acuity of speech organs, following equivalent protocols in all three modalities. These abilities were linked to the individual’s disti...

The research on the human reading technique and text perception strategies needs objective evaluation methods. Our proposal consists in the use of scan-path recording and eye track processing results as estimators of reading skills and capability of error compensation. Visual tasks, being principal investigation tool, were completed by arrangement of texts for presentation, eye trajectory acqui...

This study assessed the ability of seven children to accurately judge relative durations of auditory and visual stimuli before and after participation in a language remediation program. The goal of the intervention program is to improve the children's ability to detect and identify rapidly changing auditory stimuli, and thereby improve their language-related skills. Children showed improved acc...

Programming is a process of formalizing and codifying knowledge, and, as a result, programming languages are designed for generalists trained in this process of formalization. Artists, whose training focuses on skill and tacit knowledge, are marginalized by existing tools. By designing visual languages that take advantage of an artist’s skills in visual perception and expression, we can allow t...

Querying is an essential instrument for meeting ad hoc information needs; however, current approaches for querying semantic data sources mostly target technologically versed users. Hence, there is a need for methods that make it possible for users with limited technological skills to express relatively complex ad hoc information needs in an easy and intuitive way. Visual methods for query formu...
