Congenitally deafblind children and cochlear implants: effects on communication.
There has been much research conducted demonstrating the positive benefits of cochlear implantation (CI) in children who are deaf. Research on CI in children who are both deaf and blind, however, is lacking. The purpose of this article is to present a study of five congenitally deafblind children who received cochlear implants between 2.2 and 4.2 years of age. Ratings of video observations were...
متن کاملInteraction between the teacher and the congenitally deafblind child.
Empirical data on the development of interaction, communication, and language in deafblind children is very rare. To fill this gap, a case study was conducted in which the interaction between a teacher and a deafblind boy age 3 years 4 months was analyzed. Sequential analysis of their interaction confirmed some general clinical impressions about interaction with deafblind children, and provided...
متن کاملAn Arousing Discovery on Catalepsy: Orexin Regulates Vestibular Motor Functions
A study by Zhang et al. in this issue of Neuron reveals a novel mechanism of control of vestibular motor functions by the orexin (hypocretin) system in the perifornical/LH area through the lateral vestibular nucleus in the brainstem. This knowledge provides new insights into the understanding of brain circuitry that controls motor functions and diseases/conditions related to impairments in this...
متن کاملa contrastive study of rhetorical functions of citation in iranian and international elt scopus journals
writing an academic article requires the researchers to provide support for their works by learning how to cite the works of others. various studies regarding the analysis of citation in m.a theses have been done, while little work has been done on comparison of citations among elt scopus journal articles, and so the dearth of research in this area demands for further investigation into citatio...
Vestibular perception and navigation in the congenitally blind.
Vestibular input is required for accurate locomotion in the dark, yet blind subjects' vestibular function is unexplored. Such investigation may also identify visually dependent aspects of vestibular function. We assessed vestibular function perceptually in six congenitally blind (and 12 sighted) subjects. Cupula deflection by a transient angular, horizontal acceleration generates a related vest...
