This study contrasted the early literacy outcomes of children who are hard of hearing (CHH) with children with normal hearing (CNH). At age 5, prereading skills of oral language, phonological processing, and print knowledge were examined in CHH (N = 180) and CNH (N = 80). The CHH had poorer oral language and phonological processing abilities than the CNH but comparable knowledge of print. At age 8, measures of word reading, and reading comprehension yielded no differences between CHH (N = 108) and CNH (N = 62) except for reading comprehension for the moderately severe CHH. Reading achievement in CHH was found to exceed predictions based on prereading performance. This resilience was associated with gains in oral language during the early school years.
本研究对比了听力障碍儿童(CHH)和正常听力儿童(CNH)的早期读写能力。在 5 岁时,对 CHH(N=180)和 CNH(N=80)的口语语言、语音处理和印刷知识的前阅读技能进行了检查。CHH 的口语语言和语音处理能力比 CNH 差,但对印刷知识的了解相当。在 8 岁时,单词阅读和阅读理解的测量结果显示,CHH(N=108)和 CNH(N=62)之间没有差异,除了中度严重的 CHH 的阅读理解。研究发现,CHH 的阅读成绩超过了基于前阅读表现的预测。这种弹性与早期学年中口语语言的提高有关。
