Abstract:

Inquiry into signed languages has added to what is known about structural
variation and language, language learning, and cognitive processing of
language. However, comparatively little research has focused on communication
disorders in signed language users. For some deaf children, atypicality is
viewed as a phase that they will outgrow, and this results in late
identification of linguistic or cognitive deficits that might have been
addressed earlier. This volume takes a step towards describing different types
of atypicality in language communicated in the signed modality such as
linguistic impairment caused by deficits in visual processing, difficulties
with motor movements, and neurological decline. Chapters within the book also
consider communication differences in hearing children acquiring signed and
spoken languages.
