Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate and summarize the gross motor development of 132 hearing impaired children between the ages of 3 and 14 yr. The subjects were individually evaluated on the 11 gross motor items of the Ohio State University Scale of Intra Gross Motor Assessment. Delays were noted in catching, kicking, jumping, and hopping. It was determined that gross motor skill performance was not related to etiology of deafness or to the sex of the subjects.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
