  • Title: Socialization experiences and coping strategies of adults raised using spoken language.
    Author: Bain L, Scott S, Steinberg AG.
    Journal: J Deaf Stud Deaf Educ; 2004; 9(1):120-8. PubMed ID: 15304407.
    Abstract:
    This investigation concerned the socialization experiences and coping strategies of a group of 28 deaf adults who were raised using spoken language. Most respondents reported some level of social isolation because of (1) limitations in communication with hearing peers; (2) missing information in social, academic, and work settings; and (3) a sense of being "different." Most participants also reported strategies used to reduce isolation and mitigate the social difficulties associated with their hearing loss.
