“showing that access to tactile maps led to improved cognitive map development in terms of accuracy and flexibility.”
From Cognitive Mapping Without Vision: Comparing Wayfinding Performance After Learning From Digital Touchscreen-Based Multimodal Maps vs. Embossed Tactile Overlays (2020) · cites this paper as Espinosa et al. (1998)
In the citing paper
“Espinosa et al. (1998) found that over multiple trials and with delays between training and test, tactile map learners were much better on measures of both route and survey knowledge than participants who learned only from direct environmental experience”

In the citing paper
“The literature has unequivocally shown that access to tactile maps greatly benefits the accuracy of environmental learning, cognitive map development, and wayfinding performance by both children and adult BVI users (Golledge, 1991; Espinosa et al., 1998; Blades et al., 1999).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
