Abstract
20 sets of parents of hearing-impaired children were asked to respond to 10 questions relating to the role, expectations, and beliefs of the father in his involvement in programs for such children. Two hypotheses were offered and negated. The respondents did not see the role of the father as inferior to that of the mother, and the mother's perceptions of the importance of the father's role matched the latter's perception of himself.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
