Spatial abilities in aging adults with Down syndrome
We examined two spatial abilities in aging adults with Down syndrome using the ABC-DS project. Age effects were found in visuomotor integration. Age effects were not found in visuospatial construction abilities. Both visuomotor integration and visuospatial construction abilities distinguished between CS and AD in people with DS. Block Design had the highest predictive power in distinguishing cognitive stability from AD.
