Haptic Spatial Configuration Learning in Deaf and Hearing Individuals
The present study investigated haptic spatial configuration learning in deaf individuals, hearing sign language interpreters and hearing controls. In three trials, participants had to match ten shapes haptically to the cut-outs in a board as fast as possible. Deaf and hearing sign language users outperformed the hearing controls. A similar difference was observed for a rotated version of the bo...
متن کاملEffect of Exogenous Cues on Covert Spatial Orienting in Deaf and Normal Hearing Individuals
Deaf individuals have been known to process visual stimuli better at the periphery compared to the normal hearing population. However, very few studies have examined attention orienting in the oculomotor domain in the deaf, particularly when targets appear at variable eccentricity. In this study, we examined if the visual perceptual processing advantage reported in the deaf people also modulate...
متن کاملVisual movement perception in deaf and hearing individuals
A number of studies have investigated changes in the perception of visual motion as a result of altered sensory experiences. An animal study has shown that auditory-deprived cats exhibit enhanced performance in a visual movement detection task compared to hearing cats (Lomber, Meredith, & Kral, 2010). In humans, the behavioural evidence regarding the perception of motion is less clear. The pres...
متن کاملMental health in deaf adults: symptoms of anxiety and depression among hearing and deaf individuals.
Individuals with disabilities encounter practical and social problems beyond those experienced by nondisabled individuals. This extra burden may in turn increase the risk of developing mental health problems. The objective of this article is to disclose the mental health situation among deaf individuals compared to a control sample of hearing individuals. The analyses are based on two separate ...
متن کاملOMAR - A Haptic Display for Speech Perception by Deaf and Deaf-blind Individuals
A system for haptic (i.e. kinesthetic and cutaneous) stimulation of the hand is described. While our immediate application involves display of speech information, a number of other man-machine interface applications may be feasible, including force-feedback devices for computer interaction and human pattern extraction from multiple datastreams. Our work is motivated by the observation that devi...
