Andersson, Ulf; Lyxell, Bjorn; Ronnberg, Jerker; Spens, Karl-Erik
Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, v6 n2 p116-29 Spr 2001
A follow-up study examined the effects of different tactile aids on tasks of visual speech reading in 14 adults with severe hearing impairments. Compared with speech reading alone, tactile aids impaired sentence-based speech reading at first, although performance improved with training. No effects of vibrotactile aids or training were obtained for visual word-decoding. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
