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

From Traditional To Innovative Assessment: The Case Of Depression, Irene W. Leigh
JADARA
This article reviews various approaches to the assessment of depression in deaf people as based on current research. Studies comparing traditional paper and pencil instrumentation with American Sign Language (ASL) video tape approaches are presented. Results indicate that both approaches do work with deaf clients, depending on language proficiency in either English or ASL. Exploration of computerized technology is warranted.
Assessment Of Deaf And Hard-Of-Hearing Persons: A Strengths Based Transactional Deafness Paradigm, Martha Sheridan
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. A strengths based transactional …

Work Experience Of People Who Are Deaf Or Hard Of Hearing In Hong Kong, Petrus Ng
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 …
Preparing The Non-College Bound Deaf Student For The World Of Work, Peggy Muth
Preparing The Non-College Bound Deaf Student For The World Of Work, Peggy Muth
JADARA
How are deaf students who choose to seek employment after leaving high school prepared for the world of work? Do they have the basic, everyday readiness skills necessary to compete? Have the families, school systems, vocational rehabilitation and the community worked together effectively enough to to ensure success for the student? Legislation requires that the student have an individualized program and that collaborative efforts occur among the parties involved. But does that happen? The author proposes some practical hands-on techniques for putting the mandates of current legislation into practice to further greater success for the student entering the workforce.

Essays By Deaf Youth: Implications For Counselors And Teachers, David S. Martin, William P. Mccrone, Patricia Martin
JADARA
For several years, Gallaudet University's School of Education and Human Services and Pre-College National Mission Programs (now Clerc Center) have co-sponsored an annual national essay contest for deaf and hard of hearing students in schools across the United States. In 1998, an unusually high number of essays -235- were received for review. During the process of serving as members of the judges’ panel for this national contest, the co-authors noted potentially important trends and patterns across the corpus of essays.

Preferences Of Deaf College Students For The Hearing Status Of Their Children, Margery S. Miller, Donald F. Moores, Deborah Sicoli
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. …

JADARA
This paper summarizes the initial findings of studies conducted by researchers at ACT Inc. and the National Technical Institute for the Deaf concerning the performance of deaf and hard-of-hearing students on the ACT Assessment. The paper describes the ACT Assessment, and presents normative information about performance of a national sample of deaf and hard-of-hearing test takers in addition to results of performance of students entering NTID. Issues related to the effect of hearing loss, age of onset, and high school education are also discussed. Results for the studies reported in this paper indicate that the ACT Assessment is valid when …

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 …

This paper addresses questions about the early career attainments and attitudes of a sample of 325 deaf and hard of hearing workers with postsecondary training and education. The overall goal is to identify the strategies that create job change and career advancement opportunities for deaf and hard of hearing workers. Specific questions addressed include: "what kinds of jobs do these alumni have and what are their earnings?" "What are their attitudes about their jobs?" "How long have they worked on these jobs and have they been promoted? "Overall, descriptive information bearing on these and similar questions suggest that postsecondary training …
