Abstract
The relative ease of learning with Bliss symbols or words was investigated in both moderately and severely retarded children. It was found that Bliss symbols were the more easily learned and that this was most evident in the severely retarded children. The conclusion is drawn that it may be of benefit to use Bliss symbols with this intellectual level to establish some functional communication.
