Abstract

Hearing impairment in children may inhibit their language skill, which in turn disturbs their social interaction. Even though other potentialities in those children may be promising, such impairment may give difficulties in their improvement, a condition that is not in line with the objective of psychiatry. This research was aimed to identify the influence of speech training with a communicative approach to language skill, I.e., in on word identification, speech reading and pronunciation, in pre-school deaf children. This research used a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design. Results showed that the paired t-test indicated the significant influence of speech training in both groups, whereas, the t-test showed that speech training given to experimental group had significant influence compared to that given to control group.
