Abstract

A comparison was made separately by sex of 19 deaf and 19 hearing Ss on mean semantic differential ratings of contradictory concept-pairs. There were nine deaf males, 10 deaf females, 11 hearing males, and eight hearing females with mean ages of 23.00, 21.90, 20.73, and 19.75, respectively. It was hypothesized that the deaf would make less extreme ratings of concept-pairs than hearing Ss and that they would shift their ratings of contradictory concept-pairs closer to the mean of the original ratings of the single concepts comprising the pairs. It was found that both predictions were true only for deaf males. Deaf females did not differ from hearing Ss.

摘要

分别按性别对19名失聪受试者和19名听力正常受试者在矛盾概念对的平均语义差异评分上进行了比较。其中有9名失聪男性、10名失聪女性、11名听力正常男性和8名听力正常女性，平均年龄分别为23.00岁、21.90岁、20.73岁和19.75岁。研究假设，与听力正常的受试者相比，失聪者对概念对的评分不会那么极端，并且他们会将对矛盾概念对的评分更接近构成这些概念对的单个概念原始评分的平均值。结果发现，只有失聪男性的这两个预测是正确的。失聪女性与听力正常的受试者没有差异。
