Parent and Teacher Ratings of Communication Among Children With Severe Disabilities and Visual Impairment/Blindness
Communication Disorders Quarterly
(2012)
Abstract
Three trends emerged from independent parent and teacher ratings of receptive communication and expressive forms and functions among students with severe disabilities and visual impairment/blindness. Parents had higher ratings than teachers, receptive communication was rated the highest, and no skills occurred often. Implications are discussed for ecologically sensitive communication scales.
