Morphological Awareness and DHH Students' Reading-Related Abilities: A Meta-Analysis of Correlations
Zhang, Dongbo; Ke, Sihui; Anglin-Jaffe, Hannah; Yang, Junhui – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2023
This article presents the first meta-analysis on correlations of morphological awareness (MA) with reading-related abilities in deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) students (k = 14, N = 556). The results showed high mean correlations of MA with all three reading-related abilities: rs = 0.610, 0.712, and 0.669 (all ps < 0.001), respectively, for word…

Werfel, Krystal L.; Reynolds, Gabriella; Fitton, Lisa – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2022
The purpose of this study was to compare developmental trajectories of oral language acquisition of children who are deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) and children with typical hearing across the preschool years. Thirty children who are DHH who use amplification and spoken language and 31 children with typical hearing completed an early language and…

Park, Soon-Gil; Ryu, Sung-Yong; Cho, Jeung-Ryeul – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2022
This study examined the associations of vocabulary and phonological and orthographic awareness with Hangul word reading in Korean children, aged between 7 and 10 years, who were deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) and children with typical hearing (TH). The participants were 24 children with hearing aids (HAs), 24 children with cochlear implants (CIs),…

Rudge, Amanda M.; Coto, Jennifer; Oster, Monika-Maria; Brooks, Betsy Moog; Soman, Uma; Rufsvold, Ronda; Cejas, Ivette – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2022
The aims of this study were to examine vocabulary scores of 5-year-old children who are deaf or hard of hearing (DHH), as well as the impact of early enrollment in specialized intervention on vocabulary outcomes. Receptive and expressive vocabulary scores were analyzed for 342 five-year-old children who are DHH enrolled in specialized listening…

Zhao, Ying; Wu, Xinchun; Sun, Peng; Chen, Hongjun – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2021
Deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) students face great challenges in becoming proficient readers. Vocabulary knowledge is consistently considered to be an important factor affecting DHH students' reading ability. However, the mechanism that underlies the relationship between vocabulary knowledge and reading comprehension in DHH students remains…

Antia, Shirin D.; Catalano, Jennifer A.; Rivera, M. Christina; Creamer, Catherine – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2021
Two single-case studies examined the effects of a vocabulary intervention on K-second grade Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing (DHH) children's vocabulary learning. The intervention consisted of (a) explicit instruction that included fast mapping, and drill and practice games and (b) in-context activities that included book reading, conceptual activities,…

Kanto, Laura; Syrjälä, Henna; Mann, Wolfgang – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2021
This study investigates children's vocabulary knowledge in Finnish Sign Language (FinSL), specifically their understanding of different form-meaning mappings by using a multilayered assessment format originally developed for British Sign Language (BSL). The web-based BSL vocabulary test by Mann (2009) was adapted for FinSL following the steps…

Alqraini, Faisl M.; Paul, Peter V. – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2020
Building vocabulary knowledge, especially breadth and depth of word meanings, is a crucial step in assisting students to read and comprehend print independently. A large body of research has documented the low reading achievement levels of a number of Deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) students. The goal of the present study was to examine the effects…

Antia, Shirin D.; Lederberg, Amy R.; Easterbrooks, Susan; Schick, Brenda; Branum-Martin, Lee; Connor, Carol M.; Webb, Mi-Young – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2020
We examined the language and reading progress of 336 young DHH children in kindergarten, first and second grades. Trained assessors tested children's language, reading, and spoken and fingerspelled phonological awareness in the fall and spring of the school year. Children were divided into groups based on their auditory access and classroom…

Gómez-Merino, Nadina; Fajardo, Inmaculada; Ferrer, Antonio; Arfé, Barbara – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2020
Twenty participants who were deaf and 20 chronological age-matched participants with typical hearing (TH) (mean age: 12 years) were asked to judge the correctness of written sentences with or without a grammatically incongruent word while their eye movements were registered. TH participants outperformed deaf participants in grammaticality judgment…

Kelly, Ciara; Morgan, Gary; Freeth, Megan; Siegal, Michael; Matthews, Danielle – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2019
The ability to distinguish lies from sincere false statements requires understanding a speaker's communicative intentions and is argued to develop through linguistic interaction. We tested whether this ability was delayed in 26 children with severe-to-profound hearing loss who, based on vocabulary size, were thought to have relatively limited…

Li, Degao; Wang, Shaai; Zhang, Fan; Zhu, Li; Wang, Tao; Wang, Xiaolu – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2019
Irony comprehension can be a kind of challenge to those who are relatively less skillful in reading. To examine how DHH college students (DCSs) were different from hearing college students (HCSs) in the reading of ironic discourses, we conducted two experiments in the self-paced reading task. In Experiment 1, the statement was either literally…

Davenport, Carrie A.; Konrad, Moira; Alber-Morgan, Sheila R. – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2019
This study examined the effects of a reading racetrack game on acquisition, maintenance, and generalization of sight words for four kindergarten students who are deaf. The game consisted of placing sight words around a racetrack board and prompting the participant to read the words. A multiple probe design across word sets demonstrated a…

McDaniel, Jena; Benítez-Barrera, Carlos R.; Soares, Ana C.; Vargas, Andrea; Camarata, Stephen – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2019
Effective vocabulary interventions for children with hearing loss, including children who are bilingual, are needed because of persistent vocabulary deficits in this population. Current instructional practices for children with hearing loss who are bilingual vary in the degree to which they incorporate the language the child uses at home.…
