The Dilemma of Identifying Learning Disabled Hearing-Impaired Students.

Powers, Ann

Volta Review, v90 n4 p209-18 May 1988

A teacher, speech-language pathologist, school principal, and audiologist rated 27 hearing-impaired elementary students on effective use of language, speech, and sign language and on presence of a learning disability and/or behavior problem. Ratings were compared with each other and with test scores purporting to identify learning disabilities or behavior disorders. (Author/VW)
