Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Wallace, Valerie; Menn, Lise; Yoshinaga-Itano, Christine – Volta Review, 1998
The vocalizations and speech production of 20 infants with hearing impairments were examined at three age levels: between 5-13 months, 2-5 years, and 5-10 years. Degree of hearing loss had a significant and moderately strong relationship with speech outcome at the second and third age levels. (Contains extensive references.) (Author/CR)
