SPOKEN AND PRINTED WORD RECOGNITION IN DEAF ADULTS

建议研究调查观察到的个体差异 在听觉很强的人的口语和印刷文字识别中， 损伤 这项研究的长期目标是发现 心理语言加工系统受知觉经验的影响 并将该知识应用于涉及感觉辅助的治疗（即， 人工耳蜗、助听器、触觉辅助器）和通信 战略布局 两项研究提出了审查加工通道 (i.e.,语音与正字法）的关系， 印刷字识别 研究一检验了以下假设： 阅读中的语音代码是言语阅读能力的一个功能， 有语言深度听力障碍的人。 实验 将采用词汇和语义决策技术来探索使用 音系学 研究二检验了这样一个假设，即使用 在印刷文字识别过程中， 将他们对印刷文字的知识转移到对口语的识别上， 版本.研究二将采用一个转移任务，其中打印的伪- 单词在程序的第一部分学习，然后是口语 伪词学习 从印刷到口语的学习意愿转移 进行评估。 据预测，一种独特的学习模式将 在参与者群体中进行观察。研究I和研究II的参与者 II将是听力正常的成年人和经舌发作的成年人 严重的听力障碍 直接比较将在 三组成年人， 缺陷，那些具有：测试性能高的印刷 单词词汇量和高的语音阅读能力（HPHS）;高印刷 词汇和低言语阅读（HPLS）;和低印刷字词汇 高语音阅读（LPHS）。 关于个人原因的知识 差异可用于指导涉及感觉辅助的治疗， 和沟通策略。

Research is proposed to investigate the individual differences observed in spoken and printed word recognition by people with profound hearing impairments. The long-term aims of the research are to discover how the psycholinguistic processing system is affected by perceptual experience and to apply this knowledge to therapies involving sensory aids (i.e., cochlear implants, hearing aids, tactile aids) and communication strategies. Two studies are proposed that examine processing-channel (i.e., speech versus orthography) relationships during spoken and printed word recognition. Study I tests the hypothesis that phonological code in reading is a function of speechreading ability in individuals with perlingual profound hearing impairment. Experiments will employ lexical and semantic decision techniques to probe use of phonology. Study II tests the hypothesis that individuals who make use of phonological codes during printed word recognition can readily transfer their knowledge of printed words to recognition of spoken versions. Study II will employ a transfer task in which printed pseudo- words are learned in the first part of the procedure, followed by spoken pseudo-word learning. Transfer from printed to the spoken learning will be assessed. It is predicted that a distinct pattern of learning will be observed across participant groups. Participants in Studies I and II will be adults with normal hearing and adults with perlingual-onset profound hearing impairments. Direct comparisons will be made among three groups of adults with perlingual-onset, profound hearing impairments, those with: tested performance that is high for printed word vocabulary and high for speechreading ability (HPHS); High printed vocabulary and low speechreading (HPLS); and low printed word vocabulary and high speechreading (LPHS). Knowledge about the causes of individual differences can be employed to guide therapies involving sensory aids and communication strategies.
