要成为成功的阅读者，听力正常的儿童需要具备解码能力，即以语音技能和字母发音知识为基础的阅读单个单词的能力，以及语言理解能力，即以语言技能（包括词汇知识）为基础的理解所读内容的能力。出生时患有严重听力损失或在出生后几个月内获得这种损失的儿童，需要在解码和语言理解方面发展相同的核心技能，尽管他们可能以与听力同龄人不同的方式发展这些技能。本次审查审议了普及新生儿听力筛查和改善获得声音的技术，包括提供人工耳蜗对识字率的影响。审查表明，这些新技术带来了一些显着的改善，特别是在上学的最初几年，但许多患有严重听力损失的儿童仍然发现阅读是一项挑战，并且可以受益于在学校的整个岁月中持续的扫盲支持。
To become successful readers, hearing children require competence in both decoding-the ability to read individual words, underpinned by phonological skills and letter-sound knowledge-and linguistic comprehension-the ability to understand what they read-underpinned by language skills, including vocabulary knowledge. Children who are born with a severe-profound hearing loss, or who acquire such a loss in the first months of life, need to develop the same core skills in decoding and linguistic comprehension although they may develop these skills in a somewhat different manner from hearing peers. This review considers the impact on literacy of universal newborn hearing screening and of improvements in the technologies that give access to sound, including the provision of cochlear implants. The review shows that these new technologies have brought some notable improvements, especially in the early years at school, but that many children with severe-profound hearing loss still find reading a challenge and can benefit from continued support for literacy throughout their years at school.
