Thirty-five institutionalized, mentally retarded individuals navigated an obstacle course while viewing through an optical prism that displaced the visual field (visual--motor rearrangement). The degree of adaptation to visual--motor rearrangement was assessed and compared with scores on a research version of the Adaptive Behavior Scale (ABS). The results showed that those individuals who produced the expected patterns of prismatic visual--motor adaptation scored significantly higher on ABS Factors I and II but not III. Factors I and II include a number of items that depend upon sensorimotor integration. Thus, an explicit experimental technique for assessing sensorimotor adaptation was found to support the utility and validity of ABS assessment of mentally retarded individuals.
35名被收容的智障人士在通过一个使视野发生偏移的光学棱镜观察时完成了一项障碍课程（视觉-运动重新校准）。对视觉-运动重新校准的适应程度进行了评估，并与适应性行为量表（ABS）研究版本的得分进行了比较。结果显示，那些产生预期棱镜视觉-运动适应模式的个体在ABS的因素I和因素II上得分显著更高，但在因素III上并非如此。因素I和因素II包括许多依赖于感觉运动整合的项目。因此，一种用于评估感觉运动适应的明确实验技术被发现支持了ABS对智障个体评估的实用性和有效性。
