| Popis: | This report is based on the questionnaire responses of 95 young hearing-impaired adults (39 with moderate, 20 with severe and 36 with profound hearing loss) who were investigated in the department of paediatric audiology during childhood. Half of the individuals were educated in ordinary school (integration) and half in an institution for hearing-impaired children. Responses on social and professional insertion were compared with audiometric threshold and educational setting. Results indicate that both hearing level and educational environment influence current mode of communication and use of hearing aids. Familial factors also seem to have an influence. Oral communication is a poor predictor of employment, whereas professional qualifications enhance the chances of finding a job. Obtaining a non-professional degree appears to be unsuited for improving the employment rate of the hearing-impaired child. |
