The present research studies the auditory ability of the blind and sighted children in identifying people and visualizing their cognitive –affective characteristics by their voices. The subjects, sampled randomly and consisting of 50 fifth grade 11to 12 year- old male students made up the two experimental and control groups; of which the former consisted of 25 blind students from Isfahan Ababasir School for the blind and the latter consisted of 25 sighted students from a nearby ordinary school. Cattell Sixteen-Factor Personality Questionnaire and a self-made questionnaire based on the items of the former; together with a tape - recorder and video- recorder were used for obtaining the necessary information. In the first place, 10 teachers were video recorded while dictating a definite text, and then their personality factors (cognitive- affective) were extracted by the Cattell Sixteen- Factor Personality Questionnaire. As a result, 6 teachers whose scores on some of the personality factors were higher or lower than the mean were chosen. In the second place, first all the subjects were exposed to the voices of the teachers and then in order to check the mental images, only the sighted subjects were exposed to the pictures of the teachers. The data obtained were analyzed by Pearson correlation, Toky multiple regressions analyzes, and one way analysis of variance. The results showed a significant difference between the auditory ability of the blind and sighted children in identifying the teachers, and visualizing their cognitive-affective characteristics. The blind and sighted children did not follow the same pattern. Blind children spontaneously used their hearing or auditory concentration while the sighted ones made use of their sight, and such an effect was more related to the affective factors of personality such as; A(warmness), E(dominance), F(enthusiasm), I(sensitiveness), L(trusting), H(boldness, venturesomeness), O(self- apprehensiveness) and Q4(tension). Furthermore; there was no difference between the visualizing of the blind and sighted children and the cognitive factors such as; B(intelligence), C(emotional stability), G(morality), M(practicality), N(astuteness), Q1(conservatism), Q2(self- sufficiency) and Q3(self- control, selfdiscipline). Finally, it became clear that the pleasant visualization of the blind from the voice of the teachers was related to the above 8(affective) factors. This fact revealed that there was a significant relationship between the pleasant visualization of the blind and some of the affective factors Based on hearing the voices.
