視聽障礙者之距離判斷研究

// Distance judgement in individuals with vision and hearing loss

本研究探討視覺障礙（VL）與雙重感官障礙（DSL）者如何利用視覺、聽覺及其結合判斷距離｜結果顯示視覺距離判斷在VL與DSL群體仍具準確性，聽覺判斷錯誤較大，尤其是DSL者｜綜合訊號未提升表現，視覺為感官障礙者距離判斷的較可靠方式，且口頭估計與實際行走距離吻合度高（僅限視覺任務）

// This study examined how people with vision loss (VL) and dual sensory loss (DSL) judge distance using visual, auditory, and combined cues. Participants estimated distances verbally and by walking to targets using flashing lights and pulsing tones at various distances. Results showed visual distance judgment remained accurate in VL and DSL groups, while auditory judgments had larger errors, especially in DSL, and combining cues did not improve performance beyond vision alone. The study concludes vision remains more reliable for distance judgment in sensory loss, and verbal reports align well with walking responses only for visual tasks.
