Hearing-Impaired Students Learning New Words from Written Context.
Peter A. De Villiers; Sarah B. Pomerantz
Applied Psycholinguistics, v13 n4 p409-31 Dec 1992

Implications for explaining, and trying to ameliorate, the well-documented vocabulary limitations of hearing-impaired students are discussed. (38 references) (JL)
