Abstract

Because some unilaterally hearing-impaired children appear to experience difficulty in communication and educational progress, it seems only appropriate to reassess the identification and management strategies that are used with these children. Accordingly, this paper presents some general information on identification, assessment, and management of children with unilateral hearing loss from the perspective of three disciplines: audiology, speech-language pathology, and psychology.
