| Abstract: | Studies on the reading acquisition of deaf children investigate the similarities and differences in the reading process between these readers and typical hearing readers. There is no consensus on the nature of the reading process among deaf readers, whether they use the same reading processing strategies as typical readers or depend on other strategies to close the gap. The present study aimed to test the types of strategies used to process written words by deaf Arabic readers with prelingual deafness, compared to their hearing peers, and to test the effectiveness of deaf readers' use of these strategies. Three experimental paradigms were tested. The findings indicated that deaf Arabic readers rely on essentially similar processing strategies to those used by hearing readers. However, deaf Arabic readers employ these strategies with significantly less effectiveness. The results are discussed in light of international data. |
