BrailleReading/Perception</DIV></DIV></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Hi All,</DIV>
<DIV> I was curious if anyone here might know any information on the
following.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> I am teaching a course this semester on psycholinguistics and
will be covering speech, text, sign, and Braille perception.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> One of the assignments for the class is to write a critical review
of a paper in the field (this is an intro-level course) on the topic.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Because Braille is the one I am least familiar with,in terms of
research, I was wondering if anyone here could point me to one or two moderately
basic (these are advanced undergraduates) papers in the field.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Any thoughts or references would be wonderfully appreciated!</DIV>
<DIV>Warm regards,</DIV>
<DIV>Christine</DIV>
