Many people do not know the difference between the terms deaf, Deaf, and Hard of Hearing, so in this episode we discuss the diverse landscape of hearing loss. Michael Hoffman, PhD and Matthew E. Fasano-McCarron, PsyD, discuss why some comorbidities may be more common in patients with hearing loss and some of the challenges in making diagnoses of comorbidities such as autism, ADHD, and intellectual disability. We also discuss the impact of language deprivation on the brain and how it impacts development, particularly psychosocial functioning.
