A Three-Dimensional Haptic Matrix Test of Nonverbal Reasoning

Three-dimensional haptic matrices were pilot-tested as a nonvisual measure of cognitive ability. The results indicated that they correlated with convergent measures, with emphasis on spatial processing and that the participants who described items “visually” completed them more quickly and accurately and tended to have become visually impaired more recently than the other participants.
