dc.description.abstractClinical work with learning disabled children (Hardy, 1965; Boder, 1973) has suggested that these children have difficulty perceiving and producing items in correct sequential order. Previous research has not, however, indicated clearly whether deficits in serial order (sequential) perception are unitary and affect all sensory modes or are specific and affect sensory modes differentially. The following study tests serial order perception in three sensory modes; vision, audition, and touch, and provides evidence for specific independent serial order perception in different sensory modes. Twenty-seven preschool children were required to indicate the correct order of stimulus presentation for a series of trials in three sensory modes and their best scores were recorded. Most correlations between the scores in different sensory modes were nonsignificant lending support to the hypothesis that serial order perception is modality specific.en_US
