Descriptions of Deaf Individuals' Personality Structures: Is It More than a Coincidence That These Descriptions Parallel Those of the Written Language of the Deaf?
Edmunds, Gail A.; And Others – ACEHI Journal, 1992
This paper examines the evidence for two explanatory propositions for the striking similarity found between verbal descriptions of the written language of deaf students and descriptions of their personalities. The proposition that language difficulties invalidate the diagnostic process for deaf students is supported. (Author/DB)
