Through thematic analysis of the collected narrative interviews with ten DHH university students, key related themes such as home literacy practices, speech therapy, economic factors, extensive reading, and the challenging nature of learning Persian emerged, revealing a nuanced understanding of a wide range of language-related issues among DHH individuals. The findings highlight the complex interplay of familial support, professional interventions, socioeconomic factors, literacy promotion, and linguistic proficiency within the DHH community. Implications of the study extend to parents, educators, experts in Deaf studies, and policymakers in Deaf education. Specifically, apart from tackling the financial barriers, the importance of prioritising literacy development at home for Deaf children is emphasised, along with the role of speech therapy in long-term linguistic development. Additionally, the study emphasises the significance of formal and systematic teaching of the spoken majority language, along with special instructional materials, in facilitating effective communication and social integration. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
