Partially hearing and hearing children's speaking, writing and comprehension of sentences.
Partially hearing, deaf, and hearing children's ability to say, write, and comprehend the same sentences, from the Sentence Comprehension Test (1979), were compared. It was hypothesized that writing sentences would be more difficult than saying the same sentences in all of the three groups. It was further hypothesized that the partially hearing would form an intermediate group between the hearing and deaf. The partially hearing made more errors in both the spoken and written conditions than the hearing who were 2 years younger. The number of phonetic and visual spelling errors made by the three groups were compared.
