The Case of Total Deafness II: Phrasing in the Prelinguistic Vocalizations of a Child with Congenital Absence of Cochleas.

Lynch, Michael P.

Applied Psycholinguistics, v17 n3 p293-312 Sep 1996

Reports on the continuing study of a congenitally acochlear child using an analytical focus on the prelinguistic vocalizations involving the description of syllable groupings within a prosodic hierarchy. Results indicate that audition is not necessary for the formation of prelinguistic phrasing, but hearing does influence certain aspects of prelinguistic phrasing. (67 references) (Author/CK)
