A group 10 severely physically disabled children explored a to-scale computer simulation of a real multi-storey building. Following exploration, their knowledge of the spatial properties of the real environment was assessed by asking them to point to fire apparatus that was not visible from the test site. Subjects in a control group were asked to complete the same assessment tasks, but without the opportunity to explore either the real building or the computer simulation. The estimates of the disabled children were superior to the control group indicating good transfer of spatial knowledge. Route finding and recognition reports provided support for the pointing data in indicating good transfer of spatial information.
