In order to assess the liability of proprioceptive information, an experiment on kinaesthetic after-effects was carried out. Matched groups of severely subnormal and Down's syndrome subjects were compared with normal children of either the same chronological or the same mental age. No difference was found between the normal and the severely subnormal children, but the magnitude of the after-effect measures in Down's syndrome children suggests that asymmetrical pointing produced kinaesthetic after-effects which disrupted these subjects' total frame of spatial reference.
为了评估本体感觉信息的可靠性,进行了一项关于动觉后效的实验。将严重智力低下和唐氏综合征受试者的配对组与实际年龄相同或心理年龄相同的正常儿童进行比较。正常儿童和严重智力低下儿童之间未发现差异,但唐氏综合征儿童的后效测量结果表明,不对称指向产生的动觉后效扰乱了这些受试者的整个空间参照框架。
