Teachers' Perceptions about Minimal Hearing Loss: A Role for Educational Audiologists
Richburg, Cynthia McCormick; Goldberg, Lynette R.
Communication Disorders Quarterly, v27 n1 p4-19 Fall 2005
A 25-item survey was administered to 45 teachers to identify what they knew about Minimal Hearing Loss (MHL) and to verify or refute five possible misperceptions reported earlier by Goldberg and McCormick Richburg (2004). Results support the importance of an educational audiologist on the service delivery team to help teachers understand the ramifications of MHL and assist in meeting the educational and psychosocial needs of students with this type of loss. Results also suggest areas for in-service education for classroom teachers, especially regarding the issue of preferential seating.
