Deaf Emotionally Disturbed Children: A Study of Pre-School Retarded Girl and a Hyperactive Boy at St. Joseph's School for the Deaf, Bronx, New York, 1956-1957

Arline Dorothy A'Hearn, Fordham University

Abstract

Through this study the writer hopes to show that communication disorders are not necessarily the cause of emotional disturbance in these children and will Indicate other environmental factors that have led them to their state. The two questions for which the writer plans to find the answers are: (1) Are communication disorders in children necessarily a cause of emotional disturbance? (2) To what extent do environmental factors contribute to emotional disturbance in children with communication disorders?
