Description

Social relationships add quality to one's life and contribute to one's ability to think and learn. A growing body of research indicates that having good social skills is critical for succeeding in society (Caprara, Barbaranelli, Pastorelli, Bandura, & Zimbardo, 2000; Malecki & Elliott, 2002), including success in the labor market (Secretary's Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills, 1991; Valdes, Williamson, & Wagner, 1990). Research also documents the negative impact of a lack of social skills. Elksnin and Elksnin (2006) indicated that individuals who lack social skills are often rejected by others and are at risk for developing mental health problems that persist during adulthood. Bullis, Nishioka, Fredericks, and Davis (1997) reported that 90% of job loss is related to social skills problems rather than an inability to do the job. Children and youth with hearing loss (also described as deaf or hard of hearing, DHH) often have communication difficulties and consequently may not develop appropriate social skills and social relationships. Meadow (1980) suggested that communication and language difficulties resulted in experiential deficiencies that negatively influenced social development. Researchers and practitioners have been particularly concerned about the social outcomes of students with hearing loss who attend public school programs where their classmates are primarily hearing, because of problems with peer communication and interaction (Kluwin, Stinson, & Colarossi, 2002).
