Global Language Progress with an Auditory-Verbal Approach for Children Who Are Deaf or Hard of Hearing.

Rhoades, Ellen A.; Chisholm, Theresa H.

Volta Review, v102 n1 p5-24 2000

A study examined the global language growth rate of 40 children with hearing loss (hearing aid and cochlear implant users) who received intensive auditory-verbal intervention for 1-4 years. Results found these children essentially attained linguistic competency at levels commensurate with peers who had normal hearing. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
