Defining and Observing Social Signals in Deaf and Hearing Infants.

Smith-Gray, Sybil; Koester, Lynne Sanford

American Annals of the Deaf, v140 n5 p422-29 Dec 1995

This study compared efforts of 20 deaf and 20 hearing infants to reengage their deaf or hearing mothers in a maternal "still-face" situation. When all kinds of infant signal behaviors were considered, few overall differences were found in eliciting efforts by deaf and hearing infants. (Author/DB)
