“…This potential relationship begs further inquiry, as does the potential for parental hearing status to be a factor in explaining these findings and potentially some of the variance in results more broadly. As already noted, parental hearing status has been considered by several researchers (Dammeyer, 2010;Lieberman et al, 2004;Polat, 2003;Woolfe & Smith, 2001) as a potential influence on the psychosocial and motor development of DHH children, with mixed conclusions. Although not considered in the current study, this variable warrants further attention and investigation.…”

Previous research has shown an association between children's development of psychosocial and motor skills. This study evaluated the development of these skills in 301 three-year-old deaf and hard of hearing children (M: 37.8 months) and considered a range of possible predictors including gender, birth weight, age at first fitting with hearing devices, hearing device used, presence of additional disabilities, severity of hearing loss, maternal education, socio-economic status (SES), language ability, and communication mode. Caregivers reported on children's development using the Child Development Inventory (CDI). On average, both psychosocial and motor development quotients were within the typical range for hearing children, with large individual differences. There was a positive correlation between language ability and both social and motor development, and also between social and motor development. Age at first fitting of hearing aids (as an indicator of age at identification of hearing loss), SES, degree of hearing loss, and maternal education were not significant predictors of social skill or motor development, whereas presence of additional disabilities and birth weight were. Girls performed better than boys on all but the Gross Motor subscale of the CDI. Children with hearing aids tended to perform better than those with cochlear implants on the Gross Motor subscale.

We examined differences between Deaf, Cochlear Implanted (CI) and hearing male adolescents in terms of their social confidence levels. 54 Deaf, CI user and hearing male adolescents completed a version of the Deaf Acculturation Scale (DAS) that was specifically designed for adolescents by Maxwell-McCaw and the Jackson Personality Inventory. There was a significant main effect of hearing and deaf environment and hearing environment and general social confidence, but no significant interaction between environment and preferred mode of communication or its effect on social confidence scores. There was no association between age and social confidence scores or a significant correlation between parental hearing status, suggesting that the hearing status of participants' families had no effect on their levels of social confidence. However, CI male users demonstrated lower social confidence out of the three group conditions, particularly when in the company of Deaf individuals.
