| Abstract | Measures of a number of visual functions were performed on subjects with varying amounts of underwater experience. All measures of hand-eye coordination revealed a sizable influence of underwater experience, the more extensive the diving history, the greater the visual-motor skill. On the other hand, size estimates under water by men with diving experience differed little from those by men with none. Results for estimation of distances under water were intermediate, showing some—but not perfect— correspondence with the amount of underwater experience. The data suggest various additions to the training procedures for SCUBA divers which should facilitate their adjustment to underwater distortion. |
