Signs of essential blepharospasm: a motion-picture analysis.

Motion pictures of 15 patients with essential blepharospasm were studied. Previously unrecognized signs indicated multiple cranial nerve involvement. These signs include impersistence of gaze, lid retraction, tongue thrust, head tilts, head jerks, vertical gaze spasms, and asymmetry. The sugns were also observed in a patient with bilateral blepharospasm who had a history of Bell's palsy suggesting facial nerve injury as a possible factor in blepharospasm. The presence of these signs can be explained by known neural pathways, but the site, or sites, of the lesion remains obscure. These signs may be important in assessing severity and in treatment evaluation.

Action-concept learning in retarded children using photographic slides, motion pictures, sequences, and live demonstrations.

The inadequate use of action concepts by mentally retarded children has been reported in several recent studies, but little is yet known concerning the level of performance that might be expected to result from direct instruction designed to remedy this deficit. In the present study, it was found that three different instructional approaches yielded higher adjusted posttest scores. The highest adjusted posttest score was yielded by an instructional program in which motion picture sequences were used. This program was significantly more effective than two paralled programs, one using photographic slides, and the other using live demonstration by a teacher. An explanation for these findings was suggested.

Evaluation of two instrumental procedures for use with embedded-figures subtest of Purdue Motion-Picture Screening Test.

The purpose of this study was to determine if modification of the materials used by young Ss in responding affected their performance on a motion picture screening device. Modification of the modes of measuring responses increased the total performance of 24 kindergarten Ss; however, there appeared to be little relationship with standardized reading achievement test scores for first and second grade Ss. The approaches used appeared applicable with kindergarten Ss.
