Hearing Impairment and the Deaf Movement

•

1 like•159 views

The deaf culture movement prefers terms like "deaf" and "hard of hearing" over "hearing impaired" because the latter insinuates handicap or deficiency. A core principle is that deafness is a unique human experience, not a disability. Deaf culture influences art, language, history and values, and includes those who can hear, like interpreters and family. The UN recognizes deaf culture and sign language under the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

Hearing Impairment and the Deaf Movement

By and large, the deaf culture
rejects terms related to hearing
impairment i.e. "hearing impaired,"
although it can be argued that the
phrase adequately describes the
condition. Terms such as deaf and
"hard of hearing" are preferred
since these words do not insinuate
that people unable to hear are
handicapped or "less than" in some manner.

This critical difference in nomenclature is but one of the
significant outcomes of the social movement known as deaf
culture. One of the movements core principles is that deafness is
a unique human experience rather than a form of disability. This
notion changes the perception of how deaf people view
themselves and how others perceive them.

Deaf culture also influences art, literary traditions, history and
many shared value systems. By definition, the culture includes
individuals who are not hard of hearing, such as sign language
interpreters, family members, educators and even healthcare
professionals in the auditory field. It is also recognized in article
30 of the United Nations Convention on Rights of Persons with
Disabilities (even though they prefer not to be thought of as
disabled) with the following passage:

"Persons with disabilities shall be entitled on an equal basis with
others, to recognition and support of their specific cultural and
linguistic identity, including sign languages and deaf culture."

There are two distinct types of hearing impairment, or deafness:
conductive hearing loss and sensorineural hearing loss. The
former is a result of physical damage or improper operation of the
pathways that carry sound from the outer ear to the eardrum and
through the middle ear. This is all sensitive human equipment
and there are plenty of places for things to go wrong.

Sensorineural hearing loss tends to be related to the inner ear,
the cochlea in particular, which is responsible for the conversion
of conduction, or physical vibrations, into neural signals, which
are electrical in nature. Some deaf people have mixed hearing
loss, a combination of conductive and sensorineural.

Deaf culture doesn't discriminate on the type of hearing loss or its
severity, which ranges from mild (26 dB of hearing loss) to
profound (91 dB of hearing loss). Rather, deaf people are
incredibly inclusive and value the power, camaraderie and
support of the group. The ability to sign is a unifying force for the
culture and is celebrated in a number of ways. American Sign
Language performers such as Clayton Valli, Benjamin Bahan, Ella
Mae Lentz and C.J. Jones continue to grow in popularity serving
as both a form of entertainment and sign language refinement for
those with hearing impairment.

NEED 2 LINES INTRO ABOUT DEAF CULTURE.. HISTORY 2 LINES By definition, Deaf culture refers to language, values, beliefs, behaviors, and customs shared by Deaf persons. From the above definition, one may wonder on the difference between “deaf” and “Deaf.” The word “deaf” signifies pathology, which is the clinical term employed in referring to an individual with hearing inability or impairment. On the other hand, the word “Deaf” refers to a cultural identity for individuals who identify themselves as members of the Deaf culture. The members of the Deaf culture use American Sign Language (ASL) in communication. Currently, the major issue that is faced by the Deaf culture is the employment of technology as a hearing aid. Mainly, members of the Deaf culture have opposed the use of cochlear implants as hearing aid for deaf children. Their main point of argument is that the introduction of hearing aids will divert the children away from the Deaf culture, thus threatening the existence and the procreation of the culture and identity of the Deaf culture. Deaf culture has several personalities that have become the role models of the culture. One of the examples is Dr. I. King Jordan a Deaf professor in Gallaudet University, who was the first Deaf individual to be a University president in the United States. Dr. I. King Jordan was appointed the president of Gallaudet University after Deaf students protested pointing out that it was time for their voices to be heard and represented. This took place in 1988. Marlee Matlin is also another member of the Deaf culture who has proven that being Deaf is not a disability. She has been nominated for several Oscar awards. (MAKE IT SHORTER) Generally, the members of the hearing society perceive hearing as a disability. This is evidenced by the fact that whenever a deaf individual makes a breakthrough in any aspect of life, the members of the deaf hearing society view it as an overcoming of a great obstacle. For instance, the fact that Marlee Matlin can lip-read and talk makes members of the hearing culture to admire her largely. To ensure integration with the hearing members and bridging the communication gap between the Deaf individuals and the hearing individuals, I believe that the hearing individuals should learn the American Sign Language.

The Global Village Thinking of the world close up, as if it were a village of one hundred people, forces us to confront what we mean we say “we”. …How often does our we come to include people of other faiths, other nations, other races? How often does our we link rather than divide? Our relations with the “other” may move through a number of phases. First we talk about them—an objective “other.” Then perhaps we talk to them, or more personally, we talk to you. And finally, we all talk with one another about us, all of us. This is the critical stage to which our…dialogue must take us if we are to be up to the task of creating communication adequate for an interdependent world. If the world was a village of 100 people, In the village would be: 57 Asians 14 Africans 12 Europeans 6 North Americans 7 Latino Americans (Central and South Americans) 3 Australians/Oceanians 1 Caribbean Islander There would be: 33 Christians 22 Muslims 15 Hindus 4 Chinese Folk Religionists 6 Buddhists 6 Other Religions 14 Atheists or Nonreligious If the world were a global village of 100 people, one third of them would be rich or of moderate income, two thirds would be poor. Of the 100 people, 5 of them would be U.S. Americans. These 5 would have over a third of the village’s entire income, and the other 95 would subsist on the other two thirds. Of the 100 residents, 47 would be unable to read, and only one would have a college education. About 35 would be suffering from hunger and malnutrition, at least half would be homeless or living in substandard housing. How could the wealthy live in peace with their neighbors? Surely they would be driven to arm themselves against the other 95, perhaps even spend as U.S. Americans do, about twice as much per person on military defense as the total income of two thirds of the villagers. The casual we for most of us does not include the 50 percent hungry, the 60 percent in shantytowns, and the 70 percent illiterate. Most of us construct our we without including them. Thinking of the world close up, as if it were a village of one hundred people, forces us to confront what “we” really means. -Diana L. Eck -Encountering God: A Spiritual Journey from Bozeman to Banares (Boston: Beacon Press, 1993), 202- 203. The Deaf Culture: Is it Really a Culture at All Carol Padden has defined Culture as a set of learned behaviors of a group of people who have their own language, values, rules of behavior, and traditions. (1988) Culture results from a group of people coming together to form a community around shared experience, common interests, shared norms of behavior, and shared survival techniques. Such groups as the deaf seek each other out for social interaction and emotional support. The essential link to Deaf Culture among the American deaf community is American Sign Language. This community shares a common sense of pride in their Culture and language. There exists a rich heritage and pride in the ability t.

A: Mammalian: Gesture Calls  One type of nonverbal communication Burling refers to as Mammalian, or Gesture Calls  These are signals that are shared by all humans, such as laughing, smiling, scowling and sobbing.  These resemble animal calls in that they are innate, not learned, and found across the species.  We could identify the meanings of these forms of communication across different cultures, although there may be different cultural rules governing when these gesture calls may be used. A: Mammalian: Gesture Calls  Gesture calls can be either visual or auditory, and often combine both a visual and an auditory component.  For example, in the photograph below, we have no auditory input, but from the visual form, we know that there would be accompanying sounds.

Chapter 19 Reading:Working with Deaf Clients: An Interview with Valentino Vasquez and Johanna Larson 19-1Our Interviewees 19-1 Valentino Vasquez, MA, is a third-generation Latino who was born deaf in a Spanish-speaking extended family. His wife is deaf and their two children are hearing. As a child, he attended a deaf and hard-of-hearing program within a mainstream public school and attended Gallaudet University for several years. He teaches American Sign Language (ASL) and Deaf Culture courses in the Communication Disorders and Sciences program at the University of Oregon. He is involved with organizations supporting the Deaf community, both on-campus and off. Johanna Larson, MS, is a native ASL speaker whose second language is English. She is the eldest hearing daughter of profoundly deaf parents in an extended Northern European American family with many other deaf members. Her father became deaf from spinal meningitis at age 3. Her parents met at Gallaudet University. She teaches basic linguistic principles of ASL, as well as Deaf Culture and Community Studies in the Communication Disorders and Sciences program at the University of Oregon. 19-1aThe Interview Question: Would you give a brief overview of “Deaf Culture,” including your participation and relationship to Deaf culture? Vasquez: This really relates to language as well as identity, including values, perceptions, and beliefs, as well as social customs. In Deaf culture, the language is ASL—using a manual communication as opposed to a spoken language communication. I participate in Deaf culture through the Oregon Association of the Deaf, Oregon Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf, and socializing with members of the Deaf community. Sometimes Jo and I will host Deaf events, such as performers or speakers. We reach out to the Deaf community and invite them to attend these events, and that becomes part of our Deaf community and therefore our Deaf culture. One example of Deaf culture would be social customs. For example, when an event is over, people often notice that Deaf people stay well after closing hours. The lights will go off and people will say, “You all need to leave,” and Deaf people tend to stay, whereas hearing people will leave on time. Deaf people often will go out of the building, but then we’ll stand outside under the street lights and continue the conversations. It’ll whittle down until the last person is there. That’s a really big part of Deaf culture. I’m involved with the Deaf community here in Oregon with a few organizations that support the Deaf, for example, the Oregon Association for the Deaf (OAD) and the Oregon Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf (ORID). Here on campus at the University of Oregon, I’m involved with the Disability Studies Advisory Board, which advises and suggests courses that can be used for a Disability Studies minor. The ASL sequence and the ASL culture course is part of that minor. Question: How do you see Deaf culture as similar to, ...

A riveting, deeply personal account of history in the making—from the president who inspired us to believe in the power of democracy In the stirring, highly anticipated first volume of his presidential memoirs, Barack Obama tells the story of his improbable odyssey from young man searching for his identity to leader of the free world, describing in strikingly personal detail both his political education and the landmark moments of the first term of his historic presidency—a time of dramatic transformation and turmoil. Obama takes readers on a compelling journey from his earliest political aspirations to the pivotal Iowa caucus victory that demonstrated the power of grassroots activism to the watershed night of November 4, 2008, when he was elected 44th president of the United States, becoming the first African American to hold the nation’s highest office. Reflecting on the presidency, he offers a unique and thoughtful exploration of both the awesome reach and the limits of presidential power, as well as singular insights into the dynamics of U.S. partisan politics and international diplomacy. Obama brings readers inside the Oval Office and the White House Situation Room, and to Moscow, Cairo, Beijing, and points beyond. We are privy to his thoughts as he assembles his cabinet, wrestles with a global financial crisis, takes the measure of Vladimir Putin, overcomes seemingly insurmountable odds to secure passage of the Affordable Care Act, clashes with generals about U.S. strategy in Afghanistan, tackles Wall Street reform, responds to the devastating Deepwater Horizon blowout, and authorizes Operation Neptune’s Spear, which leads to the death of Osama bin Laden. A Promised Land is extraordinarily intimate and introspective—the story of one man’s bet with history, the faith of a community organizer tested on the world stage. Obama is candid about the balancing act of running for office as a Black American, bearing the expectations of a generation buoyed by messages of “hope and change,” and meeting the moral challenges of high-stakes decision-making. He is frank about the forces that opposed him at home and abroad, open about how living in the White House affected his wife and daughters, and unafraid to reveal self-doubt and disappointment. Yet he never wavers from his belief that inside the great, ongoing American experiment, progress is always possible. This beautifully written and powerful book captures Barack Obama’s conviction that democracy is not a gift from on high but something founded on empathy and common understanding and built together, day by day.

Running head: ORIGINS OF LANGUAGE AND LANGUAGE AND THE BRAIN 1 ORIGINS OF LANGUAGE AND LANGUAGE AND THE BRAIN 3 Origins of Language and Language and the Brain Name: Institution: Date: Introduction Social Cognition in Apes Arguably, the human pointing behavior significantly differs from that of ape. The differentiation manifests itself in certain ways. First, the human pointing behavior indicates that individuals hold on the ability to encode the universal system of gestures. On the contrary, the ape pointing behavior lacks the ability to encode the universal system of gestures. As a result, apes are unable to understand various crucial aspects closely related to their social cognition. For instance, due to their inability, apes are unable to understand the language and sign language of others. More so, apes are unable to comprehend the intention of others to both act in certain specific ways as well as communicate with them. It is for these reasons that when a human tends to reach for a bucket that contains a treat, the ape is more likely to reach unlike when an individual points on the bucket , as a way to signal the presence and location of the treat. Similarly, the joint attention of humans differs from that of apes. Joint attention which is also known as shared attention refers to the shared focus of specifically two individuals on a certain object. Joint attention is achieved whenever an individual alert the other to an object through either by pointing, use of verbal or non-verbal indications or eye-gazing. Joint attention in humans differs from apes, especially on the account that the later are unable to understand the sign language of others. As such, in apes, joint attention is ineffective and when present, it encounters varying challenges, unlike in humans. The effectiveness of joint attention arises on the account that they hold the capability to comprehend the sign language of others, and two individuals are able to share the focus on a certain object with minimal challenges. The above differences are likely to exits due to their encoding capabilities to the universal language. Despite apes and humans belonging to the primate group, the two have varying encoding capabilities to the universal language, inclusive of the sign language and universal system of gestures. It is for this reason that while the humans are able to encode the universal system of gestures the apes are unable to do so. As a result, humans are able to understand the sign language of each other while apes are unable. These differences tend to narrow down and explain the possibility of apes being unable to comprehend the intention of their members and communicate with each other. Acquisition Exposing deaf children to sign language at an early age has various benefits. First, doing so helps in providing deal children with the best ever chance of successful language acquisition. Supportively, in a contemporary research on the benefits ...

Hearing Impairment and the Deaf Movement

1. Hearing Impairment and the Deaf Movement By and large, the deaf culture rejects terms related to hearing impairment i.e. "hearing impaired," although it can be argued that the phrase adequately describes the condition. Terms such as deaf and "hard of hearing" are preferred since these words do not insinuate that people unable to hear are handicapped or "less than" in some manner. This critical difference in nomenclature is but one of the significant outcomes of the social movement known as deaf culture. One of the movements core principles is that deafness is a unique human experience rather than a form of disability. This notion changes the perception of how deaf people view themselves and how others perceive them. Deaf culture also influences art, literary traditions, history and many shared value systems. By definition, the culture includes individuals who are not hard of hearing, such as sign language interpreters, family members, educators and even healthcare professionals in the auditory field. It is also recognized in article 30 of the United Nations Convention on Rights of Persons with Disabilities (even though they prefer not to be thought of as disabled) with the following passage: "Persons with disabilities shall be entitled on an equal basis with others, to recognition and support of their specific cultural and linguistic identity, including sign languages and deaf culture."

2. There are two distinct types of hearing impairment, or deafness: conductive hearing loss and sensorineural hearing loss. The former is a result of physical damage or improper operation of the pathways that carry sound from the outer ear to the eardrum and through the middle ear. This is all sensitive human equipment and there are plenty of places for things to go wrong. Sensorineural hearing loss tends to be related to the inner ear, the cochlea in particular, which is responsible for the conversion of conduction, or physical vibrations, into neural signals, which are electrical in nature. Some deaf people have mixed hearing loss, a combination of conductive and sensorineural. Deaf culture doesn't discriminate on the type of hearing loss or its severity, which ranges from mild (26 dB of hearing loss) to profound (91 dB of hearing loss). Rather, deaf people are incredibly inclusive and value the power, camaraderie and support of the group. The ability to sign is a unifying force for the culture and is celebrated in a number of ways. American Sign Language performers such as Clayton Valli, Benjamin Bahan, Ella Mae Lentz and C.J. Jones continue to grow in popularity serving as both a form of entertainment and sign language refinement for those with hearing impairment.
