Abstract
The factors contributing to the development of spatial imagery skills are not well understood. Here we ask whether visual experience shapes these skills. Although differences between sighted and the blind on spatial imagery have been reported, it is unclear whether they are truly due to visual deprivation or extraneous factors such as reduced opportunities for the blind to interact with their environment. A direct way of assessing vision’s contribution to spatial imagery development lies in determining whether these skills change soon after the onset of sight in a congenitally blind individual. We describe our results with ten children who gained sight after several years of congenital blindness. We find significant improvements in their spatial imagery skills following sight-restoring surgeries. These results provide evidence of vision’s contribution to spatial imagery and also have implications for the nature of internal spatial representations.
