Identity Issues for Hard-of-Hearing Adolescents Aged 11, 13, and 15 in Mainstream Settings.
Kent, B. A.
Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, v8 n3 p315-24 Sum 2003
A study examined identity issues and health behaviors of 52 mainstreamed students (ages 11-15) who are hard-of-hearing and 470 controls. Although there were few statistically significant differences, there were indications that subjects more often experienced a sense of loneliness. The majority did not self-identify as having a hearing disability. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
