Forty righthanded persons with unilateral deafness-congenital or acquired in the first years of their life - underwent in average 25 years later a neuro-psychological examination. The main purpose was to investigate if the missing auditory input to the contralateral hemisphere caused changes in hemispheric specialization, memory and so-called intelligence. Ten women were deaf on the left side, 10 on the right side, and 10 men were deaf on the left side and 10 on the right side. Especially man with deafness on the right side scores poorer results in the tests than the other three groups. Half of the persons indepently of sex and side of deafness showed impaired memory function. The intelligence was found inside the normal material. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
