This dissertation by Simon Sundström, published by Linköping University, investigates the prosodic and phonological abilities in children with developmental language disorder (DLD) and those with hearing impairment (HI), focusing on word and nonword repetition tasks. The study examines how these children, compared to those with typical language development, perform in repeating prosodic and segmental features. It reveals that children with DLD and HI generally perform lower on repetition tasks than their peers. The research highlights the potential of word and nonword repetition as indicators of language ability in these groups and stresses the importance of prosody in assessing language abilities. The findings underscore the necessity for longitudinal studies to better understand the relationship between prosody, language, cognition, and hearing. The work is intended for researchers, clinicians, and educators interested in language disorders, hearing impairments, and language development.

This thesis explores reading interventions with a phonics approach for deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) children aged 5 to 7 who use cochlear implants or hearing aids. The study compares these children’s progress with that of children with normal hearing (NH) and examines cognitive abilities such as phonological processing skills, lexical access, and working memory capacity. The research investigates the effectiveness of an internet-based intervention program originally designed for children at risk of dyslexia. The results indicate improvements in phonological processing and reading abilities in both DHH and NH children, highlighting the potential of such interventions to support early language and literacy development in DHH children. The study also identifies demographic variables influencing phonological change and reading improvement.

"Language Learning in Children who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing, 2nd Edition: Theory to Classroom Practice is the long-awaited revision of the only textbook on primary language instruction written with classroom teachers of deaf and hard-of-hearing children (TODs) in mind. It builds on the work of the previous version while providing the reader with access to the entire first version on a supplemental website. An important feature of this book is that it describes four real TODs and demonstrates application of concepts discussed to the DHH children on their caseloads. Up-to-date chapters on theory of language learning, assessment, and evidence-based practice replace removed chapters. Chapters on English and American Sign Language (ASL) structure and on the three major approaches (listening and spoken language, bilingual-bimodal instruction, and ASL instruction) are updated. The chapters on teaching vocabulary and morphosyntax, how to ask and answer questions, and writing language objectives for Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) are expanded DHH. Specific examples of real cases are incorporated throughout the book. Finally, after a theoretical base of information on language instruction, many of the chapter provide language teachers with specific examples of how to answer the question: "What should I do on Monday." It avoids promotion of one or another philosophy, presenting all and demonstrating the commonalities across classroom language instruction approaches for DHH children"--
