Abstract

Numerous studies have shown that children with hearing loss are at significant disadvantage in regards to skills required for reading. Rhyming has been shown to be a strong indicator of early literacy development. This study examines the relationship between rhyming skills to

1) the degree of hearing loss , and 2) listening device type. Results showed no significant difference in rhyming skills in relation to either condition.
