Intelligent Use Of The Rorschach Inkblot Technique With Deaf Persons, Theodore Siedlecki Jr. Oct 2019

Intelligent Use Of The Rorschach Inkblot Technique With Deaf Persons, Theodore Siedlecki Jr.

JADARA

The Rorschach Inkblot Technique can be a valuable component of a psychological assessment of deaf persons if the clinician takes into account the available research data on how normal deaf persons respond to the Rorschach. Relying solely on norms from hearing persons can lead to erroneous conclusions. This article provides guidelines for administering and interpreting the Rorschach with deaf clients. A case example demonstrates how the Rorschach can be valuable even with a client with limited language skills.

Assessment Of Deaf And Hard-Of-Hearing Persons: A Strengths Based Transactional Deafness Paradigm, Martha Sheridan

JADARA

This article discusses the existence of a cultural and professional obsession with pathology which has jaded mental health assessments of consumers. The importance of incorporating ecological and strengths perspectives into the assessment process is discussed. It is suggested that individual and environmental strengths need to be taken into consideration for a more positive, respectful and empowering shift in assessment paradigms to occur. Deaf knowledgeable mental health professionals have an ethical obligation to consider the strengths and meanings of various d/Deaf, hard-of-hearing and late deafened realities as well as the individual's ancestral, cultural, spiritual and gender realities.

Work Experience Of People Who Are Deaf Or Hard Of Hearing In Hong Kong, Petrus Ng Oct 2019

Work Experience Of People Who Are Deaf Or Hard Of Hearing In Hong Kong, Petrus Ng

JADARA

Helping members of the deaf culture to engage in gainful work is an important means of their integration into the community. However, members of the deaf culture are often received simply as those with impaired hearing, and they experience difficulties in obtaining and keeping work. Cross-cultural and communication conflict is a major factor affecting their employment opportunities. Audism, the social prejudgement of the capacities of members of the deaf culture, is part of this conflict. These factors restrict their social and vocational opportunities. The aim of this study is to assess the employment situation of members of the deaf community …

JADARA

The anticipated results of genetic research and the implications for genetic engineering have the potential to reduce the incidence of conditions such as cancer, but questions have been raised about the ethics of proceeding to conditions such as blindness, deafness or color-blindness. One area that has not been addressed is the preferences of deaf individuals for the hearing status of their children. The present study investigated the preference of deaf college students for the hearing status of children they might have in the future. The results indicated that the majority of respondents expressed no preference for hearing status of children. …

Interest Differentiation Among Deaf Persons Educated In A Residential School, James Grover, Richard Roessler, George Denny

JADARA

Thirty eight deaf students (N = 38) participated in an exploratory study of interest differentiation addressing two research questions: (a) do factors related to vocational maturity predict differentiation at different points in time, and (b) does interest differentiation increase with age? Scores for differentiation predictors and levels were created from archival data collected when the students were 14 to 18 years old. Information from a contemporary interview when the students were 24 to 33 years old was used for later estimates of the same variables. Findings indicated that differentiation could be predicted from measures such as achievement, mental ability, and …
