Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the development of psychological testing for the blind, beginning with a survey conducted at the Ohio School for the Blind in the early 1900s. The author collected data from dozens of blind students of varying ages, using a point scale system devised by other psychologists to assess their intelligence. In addition to using established tests, the author developed several new ones that were tailored to the unique needs of blind subjects, such as tests involving tactile recognition and spatial reasoning. The author hoped that these new tests would lead to better identification and education of blind individuals with intellectual disabilities. The author also discusses the ways in which the blind experience and conceptualize the world differently than sighted people, and how this affects their performance on intelligence tests. This book provides a valuable historical perspective on the development of psychological testing for the blind, and offers insights into the unique cognitive abilities of blind people. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282575717_0
