Certified Professional in Accessibility Core Competencies (CPACC) — Question 29

Visual alerts (e.g., flashing lights in railway stations) and notifications (e.g., text message alerts in airports) are MOST HELPFUL to people with which condition?

Answer options

• A. Autism
• B. Deafness
• C. Epilepsy
• D. Low Vision

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Visual alerts and notifications are crucial for individuals with Deafness, as they rely on visual cues for information. While those with Autism may also benefit from visual communication, the primary advantage of visual alerts is for Deaf individuals who cannot hear auditory warnings. People with Epilepsy and Low Vision may not find visual alerts as beneficial in their specific contexts.
