A Study of the Tactual Reception of Sign Language.
Reed, Charlotte M.; And Others
Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v38 n2 p477-89 Apr 1995
Experienced deaf-blind users (N=10) of sign language tested their ability to receive signed messages including isolated signs and sentences. A set of 122 isolated signs was received with an average accuracy of 87%. Signed sentence reception accuracy ranged from 60-85%, with errors accounted for primarily by deletions and phonological or semantic/syntactic substitutions. (Author/PB)
