The Effect of Hearing Loss on the Development of Metacognitive Strategies in Written Language.

Yoshinaga-Itano, Christine; Downey, Doris M.

Volta Review, v98 n1 p97-143 Win 1996

A series of studies on 474 Colorado students (ages 7-18) with hearing impairments investigated the use of inference and elaboration, sequencing, and story-grammar strategies. The use of eight types of sequence/connection/cohesion strategies was examined. Results found that different strategies predominate depending on participants' age and degree of hearing loss.
