Changing Attitudes about the Employability of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing.
Zahn, Susan Brown; Kelly, Laura J.
American Annals of the Deaf, v140 n5 p381-85 Dec 1995
Hearing undergraduates (n=155) watched a videotape showing positive images of deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals working in 8 different occupations. Positive attitude changes were found between a pretest questionnaire and a posttest. The attitude change was maintained at a second posttest 30 days later and generalized to other occupations. (DB)
