A direct prompting strategy for increasing reciprocal interactions between handicapped and nonhandicapped siblings.

The nature of verbal interactions among handicapped and nonhandicapped preschool children.

The nature of verbal interactions among handicapped and nonhandicapped preschool children was examined in instructional and free-play settings. A wide variety of linguistic parameters designed to reflect verbal productivity and grammatical complexity was selected for analysis. The speech of designated nonhandicapped children wddressed. Listeners were classified as manifesting mild, moderate, se...

Mother-infant engagements in dyads with handicapped and nonhandicapped infants: a pilot study.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a handicapping condition on mother-infant interactions and, to investigate the conditions under which coordinated attention to an object and a person is demonstrated. This study provides a unique opportunity to make across-mother and within-mother comparisons of mother-infant interactions in two sets of fraternal twins. In each set, one...

Psychiatric difficulities in siblings of handicapped children.

Reciprocal interactions between occlusion and motion computations.

The "aperture problem" refers to the inherent ambiguity of the motion generated by an untextured contour moving within an aperture. The limited spatial extent of the receptive fields of neurons in cortical areas like V1 and MT render them susceptible to this problem. Most psychophysical experiments have probed how the visual system overcomes the aperture problem by presenting moving contours be...
