Much research has found disrupted executive functioning (EF) in deaf and hard‐of‐hearing
(DHH) children; while some theories emphasize the role of auditory deprivation, others posit …

Purpose Deaf children are frequently reported to be at risk for difficulties in executive
function (EF); however, the literature is divided over whether these difficulties are the result …

Many deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) children who acquire a natural sign language from
deaf parents develop typical executive function (EF) skills and are able to successfully …

Deaf children are often described as having difficulty with executive function (EF), often
manifesting in behavioral problems. Some researchers view these problems as a …

Studies have suggested that language and executive function (EF) are strongly associated.
Indeed, the two are difficult to separate, and it is particularly difficult to determine whether …

Numerous studies suggest an association between language and executive function (EF),
but evidence of a developmental relationship remains inconclusive. Data were collected …

Purpose Auditory deprivation has downstream effects on the development of language and
executive functioning (EF) in prelingually deaf children with cochlear implants (CIs), but little …

The relationship between language and executive function (EF) and their development in
children have been the focus of recent debate and are of theoretical and clinical importance …

Prelingually deaf children with cochlear implants (CIs) have about 2 to 5 times more risk for
delays in specific domains of executive functioning (EF) than normal-hearing (NH) children …

Objective: Children who are hard of hearing (CHH) experience delays in spoken language
and executive function, but the mechanisms for these deficits remain unresolved …
