4.two major contributors to the passing of legislation for universal

5.5 facts from Yoshinaga article: (1) the impact of identification of HL by
6 months is present regardless of gender, secondary disability, SES, or
age at testing
(2)children with early identified HL have language development which
is, on aver- age, one SD above the average of children with later
identified hearing loss
(3)children with normal cognitive development whose HLs are
identified before 6 months have language development within the
normal range
(4)children with mild, moderate, moderate-severe, severe, and
profound S/N HLs demonstrate this effect of identification of HL by 6
months
(5)preliminary results indicate that there is a strong relationship
between maternal emotional availability, maternal and child use of
