The publication answers a number of questions concerning functional impact of vision rehabilitation on the increase of functional visual performance of adults with low vision The results of the research confirmed the high importance of the experimental rehabilitation programme in all its components (reading rate, reading accuracy and reading comprehension) as well as in the monitored intervening variables (visual acuity, age, level of reading experience and activity) Implemented interventions represented a significant potential for the solution of one of the most acute areas of rehabilitation objectives: they significantly affected the quality of life of the research group Based on the achieved data, the author proposes areas and means for a modernization of the programme of vision rehabilitation which represent a potential for increase in the quality and effectiveness of the programme vii viii Preface The publication is intended for professionals, especially special teachers or education assistants, social and rehabilitation workers The author hopes that it will become a stimulus for professional discussions and an improvement of rehabilitation services for persons with low vision Recommendation The need for further development of special education and rehabilitation of individuals with low vision was stressed as the pivotal conclusion of 2001 international conference ‘Edukace a rehabilitace zrakově postižených na prahu nového milénia’ (Education and Rehabilitation of Persons with Low Vision at the Threshold of the New Millennium) in the Czech Republic The topic of development of a rehabilitation programme for individuals with low vision was recommended by the Czech prominent specialist Prof Ján Jesenský, CSc (Charles University in Prague) The interdisciplinary research study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the University Hospital in Hradec Kralove Both the University of Hradec Králové and Rehabilitation Centre for Individuals with Visual Impairment in the Czech Republic participated in the research Hradec Králové, Czech Republic Kamila Růžičková Acknowledgements Acknowledgements for the collaboration go to the colleagues Ján Jesenský and Lea Květoňová (Charles University in Prague, The Czech Republic), Miloň Potměšil (Palacky University in Olomouc, The Czech Republic), Jana Lopuchová (Komensky University in Bratislava, The Slovak Republic) and colleagues from the Rehabilitation Centre for Individuals with Visual Impairment in the Czech Republic Acknowledgements also go to all people with low vision who were participating in the research Significant assistance was also provided by the University of Hradec Králové (The Czech Republic) ix 8.3 Recommendations for Rehabilitation Practice 275 Based on the results of the experiment, the conclusion was also confirmed that even in this type of education, an important role is played by the personality of teacher and his/her ability to adapt the organizational and methodological side of education in such a way so that the development of motivation and activity was enhanced (resulting for instance in the positive results of primarily less active probands) As to the forms of the programme’s implementation, the outpatient form proved highly beneficial A clearly positive contribution for an increase in visual performance was also the direct participation of the teacher in the assessment, adaptation and supervision of external conditions for visual tasks in individual’s usual environment The data, confirmed by the research, document a high effectiveness of this concept of the ‘Increasing visual performance in reading’ rehabilitation programme We believe that further planned activities will lead to its application in practice in the Czech Republic Based on the presented results and conclusions, we propose and expect a further use of the following provisions: – Validation of the results and conclusions of the research on a larger sample – Extension of the research into the area of validation of effects of other intervening variables – Extension of the rehabilitation programmes by additional specialized programmes; their theoretical and methodological development and validation through research – Utilization of the findings and conclusions of the research for further publication activities Concerning the last above given area, further publishing activities are planned concerning this research Processing the methodology of the ‘Increasing functional performance in reading’ rehabilitation programme and ‘Exercise book and texts’ for training during the programme as well as for follow-up self-education activities is in the phase of planning Rehabilitation process does not only use the means of environmental adaptation and training of visual perception; the potential of whole personality must be included as well as his/her environment The ability to read at all its basic levels (transmission of information, educational and emotional stimulation, experience) is generally considered one of the core competencies of the human being Depending on the development of society, the ability of effective manipulation with information mostly conveyed by reading belongs to the values of social status and freedom of information Even if we can foresee changes in the possibilities of artificial vision replacement in future, we believe that no stage of development should be omitted and comprehensive services should be provided for the adults interested in the optimal use of partial sight to achieve a highquality independent life 276 8.4 Conclusions Summary This scientific publication deals with the issue of special education and rehabilitation of adults who belong to the target group of adults with low vision It assumes a position towards the development and current situation of the special support of vision rehabilitation Based on the comparison of the level of rehabilitation services in other European countries, it points to the needs and opportunities of further development of this field in the Czech Republic Specific attention is paid to the amendment of the rehabilitation programme ‘Vision rehabilitation of adults and elderly adults’ The research was realized as a part of dissertation It deals in detail with the topic of the support of maintaining and increasing reading performance It was carried out with the help of the Qual-quan research strategy In the quantitative part, the measurable data (reading rate, number of errors and reading comprehension of the read text) were compared and evaluated and the level of influence of selected intervening variables (visual acuity, age, level of reading experience and level of activity) on reading performance was observed The experimental group did not achieve the socially acceptable level of reading rate (70 words per minute) without a previous professional intervention They did not succeed in exceeding this limit of reading performance even through the implementation of the ERP However, by achieving the average speed of 63.77 words per minute, the performance came much closer to it The overall increase in reading rate was by 34.3 % Reading accuracy was measured by the reduction of number of errors Due to the application of the rehabilitation programme, 65.9 % of errors were reduced in the experimental group The overall growth achieved in reading comprehension was 107.7 % The implementation of the programme meant a higher contribution in all the categories of reading performance especially for persons with lower visual acuity The assessment of the dependence of increase in reading performance on age indicated that younger persons showed a higher reading rate, but they committed more errors and their reading comprehension was lower in comparison with the persons of older subcategory In all the observed categories, persons with higher level of reading experience achieved a significantly higher performance without rehabilitation interventions The persons showing a higher level of participation during the programme achieved higher nominal values of resulting performance in all the observed categories The evaluation of qualitative research data brings findings of methodological and educational character in connection with the use of modern educational strategies and resources Based on the achieved data, the author proposes areas and means for a modernization of the programme of vision rehabilitation which represent a potential for increase in the quality and effectiveness of the programme References 277 References Bäckman, Ư (1998) Komplexní péče o osoby s těžším zrakovým postižením Praha: ČNSPS, Tyfloservis and CZV Kahn, N B (2001) Jak
