Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The effect of an experimenter-presented organization on facilitating recall of various movement distances by 20 mentally retarded adolescents and 40 nonretarded individuals of the same mental age or chronological age was investigated. Blindfolded subjects performed linear arm movements and reproduced distances under either organized or random presentation conditions. Results support use of experimenter-presented organization in enhancing recall of movement distances in mildly mentally retarded adolescents.
