American Annals of the Deaf, v141 n5 p333-39 Dec 1996
Fifty-three deaf adults from Pune, India, rated the suitability of 12 professions for deaf, and for hearing people. Respondents' criteria for career choice appeared to be based on the need for hearing, speech, and visual skills. Although results generally supported findings in other countries, culturally specific factors appeared to play a role in shaping attitudes. (DB)
