Graduates (N=54) of a program for profoundly hearing | |
impaired infants and their families were assessed from 1 | |
to 6 years after leaving the program to determine the | |
longitudinal effectiveness of the early intervention. | |
Effects of five variables (sex, parents' educational | |
levels, birth order, parents' hearing status, and age of | |
intervention) on the Ss' early language functioning were | |
measured, and later functioning was examined through | |
teacher rating scales combined with the results of | |
naturalistic classroom observations. Findings of maternal | |
language analysis revealed that the maternal language | |
repertoire appeared to reflect the mother's emotional | |
state which, in turn, exerted long-term effects on the | |
children. Remediation suggestions were offered for each | |
of five key predictive variables: hearing status of the | |
parents, educational level of the parents, age of | |
intervention, sex of child, and presence of siblings. | |
Conclusions stressed the need for attention to family | |
functioning. (CL) | |
