Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to assess similarities and differences in marital adjustment between Deaf-Deaf and Deaf-hearing married couples. In examining marital adjustment, Spanier's Revised Dyadic Adjustment Scale (RDAS) was translated from English to American Sign Language (ASL) and administered to 30 Deaf-Deaf and 22 Deaf-hearing couple respondents. Although there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups. Deaf-Deaf couples tended to have higher marital adjustment mean scores than Deaf-hearing couples. Deaf-hearing females reported the lowest levels of marital

Abstract:

This thesis explores some of the life experiences of a group of Black1 Deaf2 individuals and the influences affecting their identity development. It also investigates the different attitudes to deafness within the Black hearing community. A quantitative survey was conducted with 57 respondents to explore attitudes to deafness amongst Black hearing people. The survey revealed that Black people perceived deafness as mild to moderate disability, a finding also echoed in the informants own accounts of interacting within the Black hearing community. The main study with the informants was conducted

Abstract:

Deaf lesbians are a population that is underrepresented in the academic literature. Through the use of narrative inquiry, the researcher conducted in-depth interviews with a woman who self-identified as Deaf and lesbian. She shared her experiences growing up as a woman who is Deaf and later in her life, realized she is lesbian. The researcher juxtaposed her experiences as a hearing, lesbian woman and an ally to the Deaf community to better illuminate the Deaf lesbian experiences. The research delved into how these dual minority identities have affected the Deaf lesbian participant as she makes

Deaf students have unique linguistic and cultural needs that are cultivated in social settings; however, these needs have received minimal consideration from school administrators and policy makers when designing and implementing educational programs. Inquiry regarding how Deaf people learn in social situations and whether these processes are present in formal educational settings is necessary to understand how to better serve this population in school. Observations were used to provide insight on how deaf people teach and learn from one another in social/informal settings. Individual intervie

This thesis is a document which tells a story of a narrative inquiry into DEAF-HEARING family life. The story involves me and a group of people who have, for the past four years, taught me about their lives growing up, living with DEAF and HEARING parents, children, siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, great-grandparents, step-relations, and negotiating DEAF and HEARING worlds. The inquiry was embarked on as a political counter-narrative to common mainstream assumptions on, and hegemonic discourses of, deafness, of family-life experience, of sign language and of DEAF lives.

The aim of this study is to investigate how deaf children are integrated in the Tunisian educational system. During the research I have visited five special schools for deaf children called ATAS (Association Tunisienne d’Aide aux Sourds) and I have collected the data by interviewing schools directors and deaf individuals. In spite of the fact that Tunisia is facing many efforts to improve education for deaf children, results suggest that they are not receiving an adequate education. This is probably due to the Medical Model dominance in the Country, which builds an environment where deaf

Background: There are 850,000 people living with dementia in the UK; this number includes Deaf people who use British Sign Language, but little is known of their experience or how services might be improved to support them and their carers, who are often also Deaf. Deaf people are routinely excluded from reports on linguistic/cultural minorities and dementia because their status, as such, is not recognised. They are very different from the much larger population of older people who lose their hearing and may also have dementia. Aims and Objectives: i) To explore the everyday experiences of liv

Thirty hearing children were matched on academic performance (according to teachers) and chronological age and recruited from the same classes as the deaf children. Three sets of imaginative stories were collected from the above groups at three points during one academic year. A mixed methodology was employed in order to investigate imaginative writing of deaf children. For the evaluation of children’s stories an “Imagin

The intention of this study is to consider whether such a concept might be a useful framework for addressing such problems and issues. The research literature on citizenship tends to be theoretical and philosophical, with little attempt to engage directly with citizens to ascertain their views and beliefs. In addition, Deaf citizens' views are rarely sought on a politically-related topic, with the tendency for involvement in

The great difficulty which deaf children have in learning to read is well documented. Previous studies have examined such aspects as problems with vocabulary and syntax but little work has been directed towards inferential and discourse skills. The present series of studies examines the inferencing skills of severely and profoundly deaf adolescents. Different types of inference were examined using a variety of experimental techniques, ranging from on-line reading times, through memory probes after reading, to tracking the movements of subjects' eyes as they read.

This thesis examines the teaching and learning of deaf primary-school learners in Kenya in order to explain their poor examination performance and to find ways of better supporting their learning.

The main argument of this thesis is that although proficiency in sign language among teachers does play a great role in the education of deaf learners, it is not sufficient in offering qual
