When the activity is presented to the child all the materials are taken out of the bag and examined.
It may be caused by disease of the sensory cortex or posterior columns. People suffering from Alzheimer’s disease show a reduction in stereognosis. Astereognosis can be caused by damage to the posterior association areas of the parietal, temporal, or occipital lobes, or the postcentral gyrus of either hemisphere.
