The Language Experience of Deaf Children: Its Relation to Spontaneous Rehearsal in a Memory Task.
Bebko, James M.; McKinnon, Elaine E.
Child Development, v61 n6 p1744-52 Dec 1990
Use of rehearsal on a recall task was compared for deaf and hearing children. A lag of several years was noted in the emergence of recall for deaf children. When data were examined by years of language experience, rather than chronological age, this lag was eliminated. (BC)
