Abstract

The research investigated the effects of vocal labeling on short-term memory with two MA levels of deaf and hearing children. The purpose of the investigation was to determine the nature of the interaction among vocal labels, age levels, and a design arrangement task. It was found that 6 year old deaf and hearing children performed the same while 9 year old hearing children showed better recall than their deaf peers, with and without vocal labels. For the deaf, vocal labeling tended to have an interfering effect at the older levels, in part because of the competing stimuli in vocal auditory and visual-motor responses.
