Kouri, Theresa
Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, v20 n1 p50-62 Jan 1989
During an eight-month treatment regimen utilizing simultaneous sign/speech input, all of the words of a young girl with Down's Syndrome were recorded. Analyses revealed that most of the words she initially signed were later spontaneously spoken and that most of her signed productions evolved into spontaneous spoken productions. (Author/JDD)
