Classroom Teachers' Impressions of Hearing Impaired and Deaf Children

Abstract
180 classroom teachers rated achievement and appearance characteristics of 9 school-age hearing-impaired and deaf children on a semantic differential utilizing 15 bipolar adjectives. A significant difference between normally hearing and hearing-impaired subjects was noted. Hearing aids and the speech of the hearing-impaired and deaf subjects elicit more negative responses.
