There is a growing realization that many adolescents with hearing
loss require special attention. Despite the benefits of early
diagnosis, early amplification, and early intervention, some
adolescents with hearing loss do not achieve age-equivalent
developmental milestones. The purpose of this book is to assist
auditory (re)habilitation practitioners in mitigating the negative
effects of hearing loss on communicative, socio-emotional, and
academic performance of adolescents who rely on auditory-based
spoken language to communicate. It is essential that adolescents
whose parents chose auditory-based spoken language receive
systematic, consistent, well-planned, appropriate auditory
(re)habilitation. In Auditory (Re)Habilitation for Adolescents with
Hearing Loss, Jill Duncan, Ellen A. Rhoades, and Elizabeth
Fitzpatrick provide practitioners with key milestones considered
fundamental to understanding adolescents with hearing loss as well
as a pedagogical foundation and general intervention strategies for
both planning and direct face-to-face (re)habilitation with
adolescents. The authors summarize important issues related to the
spoken language development of adolescents, focus on aspects of
communication that are functionally relevant to adolescents with
hearing loss, and provide strategies for facilitating
auditory-based spoken communication skills. They conclude with a
discussion of factors influencing auditory (re)habilitation, both
in service delivery and outcomes, and provide the application of
theory to practice through a demonstration of case studies.
