Ivimey, G. P.; Lachterman, D. H.

Language and Speech, v23 n4 p351-77 Oct-Dec 1980

Analyzes the written syntax of a group of profoundly deaf English children aged 10 to 11 years, utilizing a controlled elicitation sampling method used earlier with a single child. Demonstrates and describes the structured nature of deaf children's syntax, which shows similarities with 2 to 2 1/2-year-old hearing children's syntax. (Author/MES)
