Strategy Usage among Deaf and Hearing Readers.
Andrews, Jean F.; Mason, Jana M.
Exceptional Children, v57 n6 p536-45 May 1991

The five deaf high school youths reported using similar strategies as hearing elementary school youths and hearing reading-disabled high school youths, but deaf readers more often relied on rereading and background knowledge, whereas hearing readers more often used context clues.
