Results of bivariate behavioral genetic analyses indicate that both reading ability and VSTM are highly heritable. (SLD)

Peer reviewedJamieson, Janet R. – Sign Language Studies, 1995
Examines from a Vygotskian perspective deaf children's private speech, i.e., speech that is spoken aloud (or visibly performed) but that is addressed to no particular person. Findings are consistent with Vygotsky's notion of the robustness of the phenomenon and its ontogenesis in early social communication. (33 references) (LR)
