Holistic Judgment of Texts by Deaf and ESL Students.
Langston, Cynthia A.; Maxwell, Madeline M.
Sign Language Studies, n60 p295-312 Fall 1988
Thirty audiologists, speech pathologists, educators of the deaf, and language teachers were asked to sort 60 compositions written by signing and nonsigning deaf students and by English as a second language (ESL) students. The professionals could not sort the compositions correctly but tended to attribute lower quality texts to deaf signers. (Author/DJD)
