研究了脑瘫儿童（CP）是否与非残疾儿童（NH）不同，使用身体尺度信息来研究门状开口的可通过性。55名儿童中有23名患有NH， 32名患有CP，后者包括12名可以独立站立行走（CP- walk）和20名限制在轮椅上（CP- wheel）。所有组分为两个年龄范围（5-8岁和9-13岁），并进行两次测试，间隔12个月。在这两种情况下，测试包括三个连续的任务：对宽度不同的开口的可通过性做出感性（预）判断，实际上试图通过开口（表现），以及另一轮（后）判断。判断和表现是用绝对和相对结果来表示的，后者不同于前者，因为计算了相对于孔径宽度的体宽差异。主要有两个发现。首先，年龄较小的CP-Walk儿童在判断孔径宽度时最不能够使用身体尺度信息，而年龄较大的CP-Wheel和NH最能够使用身体尺度信息。其次，当通过开口的表现根据身体宽度的差异进行调整时，所有组都有相似的结果。这一发现证实了这样一种观点，即当行动被用来为感知服务时，这对NH和CP儿童的视觉空间能力都是有益的。该研究最后指出了这类研究的未来方向，以及研究结果的一些临床意义。
Whether children with cerebral palsy (CP) differ from non-handicapped (NH) children was studied, using body-scaled information about the passability of a doorway-like opening. There were 55 children of whom 23 were NH and 32 had CP, the latter consisting of 12 who could stand and walk unaided (CP-Walk) and 20 confined to a wheelchair (CP-Wheel). All groups were divided into two age ranges (5-8 and 9-13 year) and were tested on two occasions separated by an interval of 12 months. On both occasions, testing involved three consecutive tasks: making perceptual (pre)judgments about the passability of an opening varying in width, actually attempting to locomote through the openings (performance), and another round of (post)judgments. Judgments and performance were expressed in terms of absolute and relative outcomes, the latter differing from the former in accounting for differences in body width relative to aperture width. There were two main findings. Firstly, the younger CP-Walk children were the least able to employ body-scaled information in judging aperture width and the older CP-Wheel and NH the most able. Secondly, when performances in passing through the openings were adjusted for differences in body width, all groups had similar outcomes. This findings lends credence to the notion that when action is used in the service of perception, this is beneficial for the visual-spatial abilities of both NH and CP children. The study concludes by pointing out future directions in this type of research as well as some of the clinical implications of the findings.
