The Family Environment and Achievement of Deaf Students: A Discriminant Analysis.
Bodner-Johnson, Barbara
Exceptional Children, v52 n5 p443-49 Feb 1986
Parental responses (N=125) to scaled items in home interviews were factor analyzed and family environment dimensions were employed as predictor variables. Parents of proficient readers were characterized as adapted to their children's deafness, involved in the deaf community, and permissive rather than overprotective. High achievers had parents with high educational and occupational expectations and standards. (Author/CL)
