“…Similarly, in a study of congenitally blind and sighted children, D'Angiulli, Kennedy, and Heller (1998) found that the congenitally blind children outperformed their sighted counterparts when both groups actively explored the tactile pictures. However, other studies have found either no difference in performance between blind and sighted participants (Ewart & Carp, 1963;Picard, Lebaz, Jouffrais, & Monnier, 2010) or that blind participants' recognition performance was worse than blindfolded sighted participants (Kennedy, 1993, pp. 57-59;Kennedy & Fox, 1977;Lederman, Klatzky, Chataway, & Summers, 1990).…”
