Popis: After the definition of hearing loss, audiological grading scales defining the presence and severity of hearing loss are presented. An overview is provided of epidemiological estimates of childhood hearing loss and issues involved in their calculation. After specification of the stages of hearing development, the different types of behavioural responses to sound that develop in normal children are described. An overview of the normal stages of speech and language development in normal-hearing children is followed by the impact of different kinds and degrees of hearing loss on speech and language acquisition of hearing-impaired children.
