The Social

Abstract The objectives of the study were to compare social skills among deaf children and adolescents and to outline the discriminant profile in relation to skilled social behaviors. The research had a quantitative, cross-sectional and comparative design. Seventy-one deaf people aged 7 to 16 years old participated in the study, assessed by a sociodemographic questionnaire and by the Social Skills Test for Children and Adolescents in School Situation. Results revealed that deaf adolescents have more elaborate social skills when compared to deaf children. Children have a profile related to the Conversation and Social Resourcefulness and Assertiveness while adolescents were included in the Civility and Altruism profile. These results were discussed based on the development and specificities of deafness. Future research may assess these skills beyond the school settings.

Abstract Deafness results in difficulties in identifying elements of social performance in other people. This study evaluated the social skills of deaf and hearing children and adolescents to draw a profile on the categories of social skills. This is a quantitative, cross-sectional, comparative study. The participants were 122 deaf and hearing children and adolescents, each group containing 61 individuals aged between 7 and 16 years. The instruments used were a sociodemographic questionnaire and the Teste de Habilidades Sociais para Crianças e Adolescentes em Situação Escolar (THAS-C). The results showed deficits in the social skills of deaf children and adolescents compared to hearing. The social skills profiles generally favored the hearing groups, with the exception of the item Conversation and Social Resourcefulness, which favored deaf children. Communicational and developmental differences were considered during the discussion. We stress the need for research with deaf individuals to propose interventions adapted to this population.

Empirical Material

Neste trabalho, estamos interessados em examinar um conjunto de artigos publicados no número noventae um (91) dos Cadernos Cedes, que abordam a aprendizagem de matemática por crianças e adolescentessurdos. Para o exercício analítico, na perspectiva foucaultiana, apoiamo-nos na ferramenta teórico-metodológica doenunciado. Para tal, discutimos o material empírico desta investigação, considerando a metodologia, o referencialteórico e os resultados produzidos pelos autores em seus artigos. O material analisado apresentou aproximaçõesem relação à metodologia das investigações, visto que o desenvolvimento das pesquisas dá-se em ambientes escolares,por meio de atividades com alunos, tendo como foco crianças e adolescentes. Das análises, emergiramenunciados relacionados à aprendizagem matemática por crianças e adolescentes surdos, tais como: as criançassurdas estão atrasadas em relação às ouvintes; a exposição à língua de sinais melhora o desempenho da criançasurda; existem experiências educacionais prévias em contextos informais; a visualidade é fundamental no ensino/aprendizagem da matemática; há uma emergência de criação de sinais nessa área. Nesse sentido, mesmo que aspesquisas sejam desenvolvidas com base em diferentes perspectivas teóricas, são recorrentes os enunciados queposicionam as crianças e jovens surdos como ‘atrasados’ em relação aos ouvintes de mesma faixa etária, e issopor não atenderem a um padrão cultural pré-determinado, sobretudo pela Matemática Escolar da ModernidadePalavras-chave: Educação de surdos.

For such analytical exercise,grounded on the Foucauldian perspective, we have been supported by the theoretical-methodological tool ofenunciation. We have discussed the empirical material of this investigation by considering the methodology, theoreticalreferences and results produced by the authors in their papers. The analyzed material showed approximations interms of methodology, since the researches were carried out in school settings by means of activities with students,with a focus on children and adolescents. From the analyses, some enunciations related to mathematics learning bydeaf children and adolescents have emerged, such as the following: deaf children lag behind their hearing peers; exposureto sign language improves deaf children’s performance; there are previous educational experiences in informalcontexts; visualization is fundamental in mathematics teaching/learning; there has been an increase in signs inthis area. In this sense, even though the researches were based on different theoretical perspectives, enunciationspositioning deaf children and adolescents as ‘delayed’ in comparison with same-age hearing peers are recurrent,as deaf students do not fit the cultural standard that has been predetermined by School Mathematics in ModernityKeywords: Deaf education.

Objective: The aims of the present study were to (i) identify the prevalence rate and nature of mental health problems in a group of Australian deaf children and adolescents and compare these to those reported for the Australian hearing population; and (ii) identify specific demographic characteristics that may typify deaf children and adolescents with mental health problems. Method: Sixty-six parents of deaf children and adolescents aged 6–18 years, their teachers and 38 adolescents participated in the study. Data related to mental health problems were collected using the Child Behaviour Checklist and Youth Self-Report. Data related to demographic characteristics were obtained via parent and teacher surveys. Results: The overall prevalence rate of mental health problems reported by parents and adolescents in the present study is comparable to that of the Australian hearing population. Parents in the present study, however, reported significantly more concerns on the social problem and thought problem scales than did Australian parents of hearing children and adolescents. There were also significant differences between the prevalence and nature of mental health problems as reported by the deaf adolescents in the present study when compared to deaf adolescents in another Australian study. These differences appear to be explained by differences in the preferred communication mode of the participants in the two studies. Conclusions: The known heterogeneity within the Australian deaf child and adolescent population with respect to preferred mode of communication has important implications not only for the appropriate selection and use of psychiatric instruments in assessing child and adolescent mental health but also for the accurate reporting of the prevalence and nature of mental health problems within this population.
