김화수 Wha Soo Kim , 장만순 Man Soon Jang , 김성수 Sung Soo Kim
This study was aimed to identify the syntactic processing abilities of children with specific language impairment(SLI). Two groups of children(SLI & NL group) were participated in this experiment. We created eight types of task sentences in according to different position of relative clause, head noun noun’s parallel function, and the role of relative clauses and examined children children’s comprehension of these 8 types of sentences using an alternative acting-out tasks proposed by Correa(1996). Children with SLI were significantly less accurate than the normal children in relative clause comprehension tasks. Both groups of children children’s accuracies were greater for left branching sentences than for center-embedded ones and were greater for subject relative clauses than for object relative ones. As a result, it was confirmed that SLI’s deficits in syntactic area was related to not only semantic processing but also syntactic processing ability which enables to form a sentence structure by using the syntactic information within the sentences. Therefore, it is necessary to teaching syntactic information processing skills when treating SLI SLI’s deficits of syntactic area.

A Study of Attitudes, Strategies and Academic Accomplishments in Learning English between Students with Visually Impairments and Sighted Students 시각장애 학생과 일반학생의 영어 학습태도, 학습전략 및 학업성취도에 관한 연구
English education in school is important for both students with visual impairments and sighted students. This study investigated the attitudes, strategies and scholastic achievements of students with visual impairments and sighted students, and analyzed relevant variables for both groups as a means of providing basic data that may contribute to greater effectiveness in English education. The participants of the study were 122 high schoolers (56 students with visual impairments, 66 sighted students) studying in their second year. Scholastic achievements in both groups were measured using the English language evaluation results contained in the “2009 National-Level Scholastic Achievement Evaluation” report. In addition, the researchers used both student attitude and learning strategy questionnaires. The results of the study are summarized as follows: First, no significant differences existed between overall student attitudes to English language learning between students with visual impairments and sighted students, but students with visual impairments rated significantly higher in the sub-category of “attitudes toward English language class”. Second, sighted students rated higher overall than students with visual impairments in their English learning strategies. Significant differences obtained in the sub-categories of meta-cognitive strategies and cognitive strategies. Third, there were significant differences in scholastic achievement between the two groups. The results of the national-level scholastic achievement evaluation report showed that sighted students rated higher overall than students with visual impairments. Fourth, student attitudes and strategies to scholastic achievement in English had overall significant impact only on those students possessing excellent scholastic abilities. Finally, there were significant effects in scholastic achievement among impairment status, learning attitudes and attitudes of curriculum, and meta- cognitive strategies. Learning attitudes, attitudes of curriculum, and meta-cognitive strategies affected their scholastic achievement. It is obvious that metacognitive strategies were the most effective factor. Therefore, in the English classroom, maximum educational support must be provided to raise academic achievement levels through producing effective attitudes and strategies in the learners. This study suggests that instructing learning strategies and attitudes, especially focusing on meta-cognitive strategies, will help both students with visual impairments and sighted students.

Political-economic analysis of disability discrimination: focusing on the relations between disability discrimination and social politics 장애차별의 정치경제학적 분석: 장애차별과 사회정책의 관계를 중심으로
Political-economic analysis, among other theories and expository frames, can be considered as one of the most important tools to explain the social status of and the social discrimination against disabled people. One of the reasons is that we can understand critical influences on daily life through political economics of disability, and that almost everything we experience in day-to-day context cannot be separated from political economics. This article aims to analyze disability and disability discrimination on the aspect of political economics. Especially this article tries to account for how disabled people have been controled or excluded through social politics, which reflect political economics of a certain society, and how they have been positively affected by social politics. Firstly, this article will explain why disability needs to be understood as a result of political economics. Secondly, it will look at the process of the classification and industrialization of disability within the frame of Capitalism. Lastly, it will claim that social politics can take an important role in empowering disabled people, even though it is undeniable that it has played as a mechanism of their social exclusion.

A study on the hearing impaired college students` Type-Token Ratio 청각장애대학생의 어휘다양도에 관한 연구
This study is about the features of hearing impaired college students’ sentence making, which are analyzed by TTR(Type Token Ratio). These features were compared to find out the differences between regular school graduates and special school graduates. As a result, there are nine regular school graduates and nine special graduates on this study. Among the sentences made by the eighteen college students, ninety sentences were chosen to be analyzed. The result of this study is summarized as follows: Firstly, students who graduated from regular schools showed 1372 NTW(Number of Total Words) and 833 NDW(Number of Different Words). Students who graduated from special schools showed 1,312 NTW and 713 NDW. After statistical analysis, there is no significant difference between the two graduates in the NTW, NDW and TTR(Type-Token Ratio). This means that hearing impaired college students’ TTR and other related features are not affected in the spoken-language environment of regular school or the sign-language environment of special schools. Secondly, when compared to the previous study of regular secondary school students, the hearing impaired college students’ NTW and NDW are extremely low. However, there is no significant difference in TTR. This shows that hearing impaired college students have a difficulty in language acquirement, but their language usage doesn’t differ greatly from that of the regular school students. Limitations and suggestions for future study are discussed.
