从出生起就没有接触到流利手语的聋哑儿童在数学方面通常落后于听力正常的同龄人。这些差异普遍存在,从3岁开始出现,并持续到整个成年期。虽然这些局限性已经被充分证明,但很少有人试图从经验上解释为什么耳聋的一个后果似乎反映了数字和数学的困难。这篇综述的目的是描述DHH儿童的数学能力,同时解释为什么我们看到这种差异。特别是,我们审查的证据表明,有限/减少的语言访问,特别是在生命的头几个月,可能会发挥作用,在延迟收购的早期数字概念和解决数学问题时,其潜在的干扰。我们还考虑了执行功能,特别是工作记忆,在数学学习中发挥的潜在作用,以及一些DHH儿童的工作记忆容量较低可能会影响早期的数字学习和任务表现。最后,我们提出了未来的研究,旨在解释为什么耳聋往往伴随着数字认知的困难,同时告知我们更广泛的理解语言和数字概念之间的关系。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c)2023阿帕,保留所有权利)
Deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) children who are not exposed to fluent sign language from birth generally fall behind their hearing peers in mathematics. These disparities are pervasive and emerge as young as 3 years old and continue throughout adulthood. While these limitations have been well-documented, there has been little attempt to empirically explain why one consequence of deafness seems to reflect difficulties with numbers and mathematics. The purpose of this review is to describe the math abilities of DHH children while providing an explanation as to why we see this disparity. In particular, we review evidence suggesting that limited/reduced language access, particularly in the first few months of life, may play a role in delaying the acquisition of early number concepts and its potential interference when solving math problems. We also consider the potential role executive functions, specifically working memory, play in mathematical learning and how lower working memory capacity seen in some DHH children may impact early numerical learning and task performance. Finally, we propose future research aimed to explain why deafness is often accompanied by difficulties in numerical cognition while informing our broader understanding of the relationship between language and numerical concepts.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)
