Quinn, Lisa

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v32 n1 p139-61 Aug 1981

Examined the nature of reading skills in congenitally deaf and hearing children, 7 to 19 years old. Results indicated deaf and hearing children use orthographic regularities and qualitatively similar psycholinguistic strategies. No relation was found between deaf children's sensitivity to orthographic regularities and type of communication method used in training. (Author/DB)
