Accessibility and consumer knowledge of services for deaf adolescentsReynolds, Gillian 01 January 2001 (has links)
The percentage of deaf and hard of hearing people who need mental health crisis services is similar to the percentage of the general population needing such services. Yet, coordinated mental services for deaf and hard of hearing individuals are virtually nonexistent. People who are deaf and hard of hearing, like everyone else, find themselves, from time to time, in need of mental health services.

Previous issue date: 2018-11-01 / Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo - PUCSP / This study brings together contributions on the preferences of deaf people in relation to communicative applications. In order to carry out this research, it was important to understand in more depth the community of people who are hearing impaired, who have their own language, Brazilia Sign Language (GESSER, 2009) and have a different identity and culture from hearing people (GOES et al, 2011). Although many actions (including benefits, laws and public policies) take place due to the approach of deafness from the perspective of what is deficient in it – lack o hearing -, this study brings the discussion regarding the socio-anthropological view of deafness, based on the difference and not on the disability (SKLIAR, 1998; 2004). It is worth mentioning the influence of language in this context, shaping the deaf person and his or her choices. This project also carried out a survey which listed and analysed the technologies that assist deaf people’s communication, introducing the applications to be approached in the research done with a group of deaf people. The interviews brought a variety of contributions, among which we highlight: a list of suggestions for improving the applications, the level of satisfaction of the group of respondents with the most used applications and details about what motivates them to use the apps and their main functionalities / Este estudo reúne contribuições sobre as preferências de surdos com relação a aplicativos de comunicação. Para a realização desta pesquisa, foi importante entender com mais profundidade essa comunidade de pessoas que não escutam, possuem uma língua própria: Libras (GESSER, 2009) e uma identidade e cultura distintas dos ouvintes (GOES et al, 2011; NOGUEIRA, 2015). Apesar de muitas ações (incluindo benefícios, leis e políticas públicas) acontecerem em decorrência da abordagem do surdo pela perspectiva do que é deficiente nela, ou seja, a falta de audição, cabe a discussão trazida por este estudo acerca da visão socioantropológica da surdez, pautada na diferença e não na “doença” (SKLIAR, 1998). Cabendo mencionar a influência da língua nesse contexto, moldando a concepção deste sujeito surdo e suas escolhas. Este projeto realizou também um levantamento e análise das tecnologias que assessoram a comunicação do surdo, fazendo uma introdução dos aplicativos a serem abordados na pesquisa realizada com um grupo de surdos. As entrevistas, por sua vez, trouxeram uma variedade de contribuições, dentre elas destacamos: lista de sugestões para aprimoramento dos aplicativos, o nível de satisfação do grupo de entrevistados com o aplicativo mais utilizado, detalhamentos sobre o que motiva os surdos a utilizarem o app e as principais funcionalidades usadas

Facilitating communication for deaf individuals with mobile technologiesSummet, Valerie Henderson 31 March 2010 (has links)
Communication between deaf individuals and hearing individuals can be very difficult. For people who are born deaf, English is often a second language with the first language being American Sign Language (ASL). Very few hearing people in the United States sign or are aware of Deafness, Deaf culture, or how to appropriately communicate with people with hearing loss.
In this thesis, I concentrate on the role that mobile technologies can play in ameliorating some of these issues. In formative work with Deaf teenagers in the metro-Atlanta area, I investigate the role that communication technologies play in the lives of many Deaf individuals and examine how these devices have effected their communication patterns and social circles. Specifically, the teens identified problems communicating with hearing individuals such as close friends and family in face-to-face situations.
Having identified sign language use at home as one of the earliest interventions for Deaf children, I investigated the use of mobile phones for learning survival-level ASL. I created a prototype software application which presented short ASL lessons via either a mobile phone or desktop web-browser. The software presented the lessons via one of two different scheduling methods designed to take advantage of the spacing effect during learning. I designed and conducted a study of forty individuals with no prior ASL knowledge which compared the effects of both scheduling algorithm and platform. My results show that individuals who used a mobile phone platform and received a group of lessons at one time performed better on post-test receptive and generative ASL metrics than did participants in the three other conditions.

Previous issue date: 2013 / O tema da presente tese de doutoramento é a comunicação em sala de aula entre professoras e alunos surdos. A partir da tradução e da etnonarrativa implicada, compreendi as mediações linguísticas em cinco diferentes cenas de interação comunicativa em sala de aula. Adotei a etnopesquisa como fundamento teórico-metodológico de pesquisa qualitativa em educação, a etnonarrativa implicada com densos componentes autobiográficos e procedimentos da sociolinguística interacional para a interpretação dos diálogos entre os atores sociais do cenário socioeducativo. Em termos da compreensão dos turnos de fala, parti de cinco etno-observações filmadas num programa de estimulação precoce que adotava o uso da língua brasileira de sinais (Libras). Utilizei também um diário de campo para anotar informações relevantes sobre as aulas filmadas e o cotidiano institucional. Vale ressaltar que a heurística da pesquisa se revela dentro da perspectiva de uma etnonarrativa implicada na sua totalidade e em seu movimento. No que concerne ao processo de compreensão das mediações linguísticas entre professoras e alunos surdos, participaram duas professoras surdas, três professoras ouvintes e treze alunos surdos. Os alunos estavam na faixa etária dos cinco aos sete anos de idade. Descrevi as falas dos participantes em turnos que contém a anotação dos elementos constitutivos (sinais da Libras, gestos, movimentos corporais, expressões faciais, etc.) e a respectiva tradução para a língua portuguesa. Intepretei diálogos selecionados em cenas que contêm fenômenos próprios da comunicação entre professoras e alunos surdos. A partir da compreensão das mediações linguísticas entre os participantes, discuti questões próprias da Educação de Surdos, como a formação de professores surdos e de TILS educacionais linguisticamente responsáveis para a atuação neste contexto. Discuti também o problema da exclusão linguística e a luta pela Escola Bilíngue da comunidade surda brasileira, evidenciando a relevância linguística, cultural e identitária, bem como a pertinência socioeducativa destas instituições. / Salvador

Crossing social boundaries and dispersing social identity : tracing deaf networks from Cape TownHeap, Marion 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2003. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The conciliatory discourse of the South African Deaf social movement claims a
commonality across South Africa's historical divides on the basis of a 'Deaf culture'. This
claim in view of South Africa's deeply entrenched 'racial' divisions triggered this study.
The study investigates the construction of Deaf identity and emphasizes the crossing of
social boundaries in Cape Town, a society with a long history of discriminatory
boundaries based on race. The study was carried out among adults who became deaf
as children, the group for whom deafness, commonly viewed as both sensory and social
deficit, is said to pose considerable linguistic, social and cultural challenges. It focused
on strategies that deal with being deaf in a predominantly hearing world. To identify
strategies, for this population without a geographical base, the study traced networks of
social relationships.
Fieldwork was carried out from September 1995 to December 2001. Between
September 1995 and December 1997 research included systematic participant
observation and informal interviews. Between January 1998 and December 2001 ,
continuing with participant observation and informal interviews, the study added formal
interviews with a sample population of 94 deaf people across Cape Town, collected by
the snowball method. The profile of this sample shows a relatively heterogeneous
population on the basis of demographic factors and residential area but similarity on the
basis of first language, Sign.
The study demonstrates that history imposed boundaries. It categorized the Deaf as
different from the hearing and in addition, in South Africa, produced further differentiation
on the basis of apartheid category, age, Deaf school attended, method of education and
spoken language. In this historical context the study identified a key strategy, 'Signing
spaces'. A Signing space, identifiable on the basis of Sign-based communication, is a
set of networks that extends from the deaf individual to include deaf and hearing people.
On analysis it comprises a Sign-hear and a Sign-Q.e.gfspace. In Sign-~ networks,
hearing people predominate. Relationships are domestic and near neighbourhood. In Sign-~ networks, deaf people predominate. Relationships are sociable and marked
by familiarity.
The study found that via the Signing space, the Deaf subvert deafness as deficit to
recoup a social identity that is multi-faceted and dispersed across context. Boundaries
crossed also vary by context and by networks. Sign-~ networks address the hearing
boundary. Limits could be identified in the public arena, when barriers to communication
and a poor supply of professional Sign language interpreters again rendered deafness
as deficit. The boundaries of the Sign-deaf networks were difficult to determine and
suggest the potential, facilitated by Sign language, to transcend South Africa's spoken
languages and the related historical divisions. Sign-~ networks also suggest the
additional potential, in sociable contexts, to transcend spoken language, trans-nationally.
But mutual intelligibility of Sign language and the familiarity, communality and
commonality it offered did not deny an awareness of historical differentiation and
discrimination, as a case of leadership succession presented as a 'social drama' shows.
However, the process of the 'social drama' also demonstrates that conflict, crises, and a
discourse that reflects South Africa's historical divisions need not threaten a broader
commonality. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die oorsteek van maatskaplike grense en verbreiding van maatskaplike identiteit:
die nagaan van netwerke vir Dowes van Kaapstad
Die bemiddelende diskoers van die Suid-Afrikaanse maatskaplike beweging vir Dowes
maak op grond van 'n 'Dowe kultuur' aanspraak op 'n algemeenheid wat oor Suid-Afrika
se geskiedkundige verdeeldhede heen strek. Hierdie aanspraak het, in die lig van Suid-
Afrika se diepgewortelde 'rasseverdelings' , tot hierdie navorsing aanleiding gegee. Die
navorsing ondersoek die vorming van 'n Dowe identiteit en beklemtoon die oorsteek van
maatskaplike grense in Kaapstad, 'n gemeenskap met 'n lang verlede van
diskriminerende grense wat op ras gebaseer is. Die navorsing is gedoen onder
volwassenes wat as kinders doof geword het. Vir hierdie groep, waar dit gewoonlik as 'n
sensoriese en sosiale gebrek beskou word, hou doofheid aansienlike linguistiese,
sosiale en kulturele uitdagings in. Die navorsing fokus op strategieë wat te make het
met doof wees in 'n oorheersend horende wêreld. Om vir hierdie bevolking sonder 'n
geografiese basis strategieë te identifiseer, het die navorsing maatskaplike
verhoudingsnetwerke nagegaan.
Veldwerk is tussen September 1995 en Desember 2001 gedoen. Tussen September
1995 en Desember 1997 het die navorsing stelselmatige waarneming van die
deelnemers en informele onderhoude met hulle behels. Hierdie waarneming en
informele onderhoude is tussen Januarie 1998 en Desember 2001 voortgesit, maar die
navorsing het nou ook formele onderhoude met 'n steekproefbevolking van 94 dowe
mense van regoor Kaapstad ingesluit. Hiervoor is van die sneeubalmetode gebruik
gemaak. Die profiel van hierdie steekproef toon 'n relatief heterogene bevolking op
grond van demografiese faktore en woongebied, maar ooreenkoms op grond van eerste
taal, naamlik Gebaretaal.
Die navorsing toon aan dat grense deur die geskiedenis opgelê is. Dit het Dowes as
verskillend van horendes gekategoriseer, en het daardeur in Suid-Afrika tot verdere
differensiasie op grond van die apartheidskategorie, ouderdom, watter doweskool
bygewoon is, wyse van onderrig en gesproke taal aanleiding gegee. In hierdie
geskiedkundige konteks het die navorsing 'n belangrike strategie, 'Gebare-ruimtes',
geïdentifiseer. 'n Gebare-ruimte wat uitgeken kan word op grond van Gebaar-gebaseerde kommunikasie, is 'n stel netwerke wat van die dowe individu af uitbrei om
dowe en horende mense in te sluit. Uit 'n analise blyk dit dat dit 'n Gebaar-horende en
Gebaar-dowe ruimte behels. In Gebaar-horende netwerke oorheers horende mense.
Verhoudinge word in die huis en met die naaste bure aangegaan. In Gebaar-dowe
netwerke oorheers dowe mense. Verhoudings is gesellig van aard en word deur
ongedwongenheid gekenmerk.
Die navorsing het bevind dat die Dowe doofheid as gebrek deur middel van die Gebaarruimte
omkeer om 'n veelvlakkige maatskaplike identiteit wat dwarsoor die konteks
versprei is, te behels. Grense wat oorgesteek word, varieer ook in konteks en ten
opsigte van netwerke. Gebaar-horende netwerke fokus op die horende grens.
Beperkinge kon in die openbare arena geïdentifiseer word in gevalle waar hindernisse
ten opsigte van kommunikasie en gebrekkige voorsiening van Gebaretaal-tolke weer
doofheid as 'n gebrek voorgestel het. Dit was moeilik om die grense van die Gebaar-
~ netwerke te bepaal en dit suggereer die potensiaalom, gefasiliteer deur
Gebaretaal, Suid-Afrikaanse tale en die gepaardgaande geskiedkundige verdelings te
transendeer. Gebaar-dowe netwerke suggereer ook die addisionele potensiaal om
gesproke taal, in gesellige kontekste trans-nasionaal te transendeer. Maar onderlinge
verstaanbaarheid van Gebaretaal en die ongedwongenheid, gemeenskaplikheid en
algemeenheid wat dit gebied het, het nie 'n bewustheid van geskiedkundige
differensiasie en diskriminasie ontken nie, soos 'n geval van opvolging van leierskap,
wat as 'n 'sosiale drama' aangebied is, getoon het. Die proses van die 'sosiale drama'
toon ook dat konflik, krisisse en 'n diskoers wat Suid-Afrika se geskiedkundige
verdelings weerspieël, nie 'n wyer algemeenheid hoef te bedreig nie.

Die invloed van die spraakbenadering van onderwys vir dowe kinders op die maatskaplike funksionering van die doweHeyns, Mimi January 1982 (has links)
From Introduction: Gehoor speel 'n belangrike rol in die leerproses, in aanpassing by die omgewing asook in aanpassing by sosiale omstandighede. Gehoorverlies plaas die individu in 'n situasie van vereensaming, veroorsaak deur 'n beperktheid in kommunikasievermoë. (Roux, 1979:1) Dr Roux, Direkteur van Gesondheidsdienste van die Departement van Gesondheid, Welsyn en Pensioene, het tydens die Goue Jubileum-Kongres van die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Raad vir Dowes daarop gewys dat gehoorverlies vandag meer Amerikaners affekteer as hartsiektes, kanker, blindheid, tuberkulose, veneriese siektes, sklerose en niersiektes tesame. (Roux, 1979:1) In Suid-Afrika word beraam dat 0,06% van aIle babas totaal doof gebore word en dat die aantal persone met ernstige gehoorprobleme, volgens die skatting van die Departement van Gesondheid, Welsyn en Pensioene, 65 000 beloop. Hierdie getal sluit Swartes uit. (Roux, 1979:1) ... Die probleem van doofheid is kompleks en soms so ingewikkeld dat dit te betwyfel is of die horende individu die omvang daarvan begryp en insig in die situasie van die dowe kan ontwikkel. Empatie met die dowe en begrip vir sy leefwêreld is vir die horende persoon problematies. 'n Wêreld sonder klank is moeilik om te visualiseer en 'n wêreld sonder taal lê buite die begripsvermoë van die horende. Daar bestaan op velerlei gebiede verwarring ten opsigte van die dowe. Die horende persoon besef gewoonlik dat daar 'n eiesoortige wêreld van ervaring en denke vir die dowe is anders as die van die horende, maar begrip vir die omvang van die andersheid van die dowe ontbreek.

Perception de la langue française parlée complétée: intégration du trio lèvres-main-sonBayard, Clémence 25 October 2014 (has links)
La Langue française Parlée Complétée est un système peu connu du grand public. Adapté du Cued Speech en 1977, il a pour ambition d’aider les sourds francophones à percevoir un message oral en complétant les informations fournies par la lecture labiale à l’aide d’un geste manuel. Si, depuis sa création, la LPC a fait l’objet de nombreuses recherches scientifiques, peu de chercheurs ont, jusqu’à présent, étudié les processus mis en jeu dans la perception de la parole codée. Or, par la présence conjointe d’indices visuels (liés aux lèvres et à la main) et d’indices auditifs (via les prothèses auditives ou l’implant cochléaire), l’étude de la LPC offre un cadre idéal pour les recherches sur l’intégration multimodale dans le traitement de la parole. En effet, on sait aujourd’hui que sourds comme normo-entendants mettent à contribution l’ouïe et la vue pour percevoir la parole, un phénomène appelé intégration audio-visuelle (AV).<p><p>Dans le cadre de cette thèse nous avons cherché à objectiver et caractériser l’intégration labio-manuelle dans la perception de la parole codée. Le poids accordé par le système perceptif aux informations manuelles, d’une part, et aux informations labiales, d’autre part, dépend-il de la qualité de chacune d’entre elles ?Varie-t-il en fonction du statut auditif ?Quand l’information auditive est disponible, comment le traitement de l’information manuelle est-il incorporé au traitement audio-visuel ?Pour tenter de répondre à cette série de questions, cinq paradigmes expérimentaux ont été créés et administrés à des adultes sourds et normo-entendants décodant la LPC. <p><p>Les trois premières études étaient focalisées sur la perception de la parole codée sans informations auditives. Dans l’étude n° 1, le but était d’objectiver l’intégration labio-manuelle ;l’impact de la qualité des informations labiales et du statut auditif sur cette intégration a également été investigué. L’objectif de l’étude n° 2 était d’examiner l’impact conjoint de la qualité des informations manuelles et labiales ;nous avons également comparé des décodeurs normo-entendants à des décodeurs sourds. Enfin, dans l’étude n° 3, nous avons examiné, chez des décodeurs normo-entendants et sourds, l’effet de l’incongruence entre les informations labiales et manuelles sur la perception de mots. <p><p>Les deux dernières études étaient focalisées sur la perception de la parole codée avec du son. L’objectif de l’étude n°4 était de comparer l’impact de la LPC sur l’intégration AV entre les sourds et les normo-entendants. Enfin, dans l’étude n°5, nous avons comparé l’impact de la LPC chez des décodeurs sourds présentant une récupération auditive faible ou forte. <p><p>Nos résultats ont permis de confirmer le véritable ancrage du code LPC sur la parole et de montrer que le poids de chaque information au sein du processus d’intégration est dépendant notamment de la qualité du stimulus manuel, de la qualité du stimulus labial et du niveau de performance auditive.<p> / Doctorat en Sciences Psychologiques et de l'éducation / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished

Promoting the educational skills of hostel parents at schools for deaf adolescent boysGovender Fawzia Cassim 06 1900 (has links)
A description of the developmental characteristics of adolescents and the effect of deafness, on the cognitive emotional and social development of the Deaf adolescent boy is given. At a stage, when the parents influence is crucial in any child's upbringing, the Deaf child, mainly because of his/her need for special educational services is placed in a school hostel at an early age. The aim of the investigation was two-fold:
• Firstly, from thl! literature study, to analyze and describe the educational distress of the Deaf adolescent boy residing in the school hostel. Secondly, to conduct an empirical survey consisting of structured questionnaires in order to ascertain the kind of support rendered to the Deaf adolescent boy in the hostel.
From the literature study and the empirical survey a training/educational programme was designed to promote the educational skills of hostel parents at schools for Deaf adolescent boys. / Inclusive Education / M.Ed.(Orthopedagogics)
