Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| In the primary analysis, we will first administer a letter recognition task as a baseline. After that, participants will receive tactile recognition training once per day for three consecutive days. We will evaluate the effect of tactile learning on letter recognition processing by comparing changes in letter recognition performance between groups. | — |
