This exercise highlights three articles. First, a qualitative research study with multiple
high school student participants with deafness/hearing loss examining factors that
promoted versus challenged their access to classroom communication and participation
is included. The next article is a preliminary study exploring that children with reading
impairments are more likely to fail hearing screenings that children with typical reading
skills. Finally, the third article looks at shared book reading and its association with
language growth aspects for children who are deaf and hard of hearing over a 4-week
training program related to caregiver knowledge of emergent literacy features

This issue contains two articles. First, authors describe a procedure for completing and applying electrically evoked stapedial reflex threshold (ESRT) measures, objective measures that correlates to upper comfort/stimulation (C/M) levels, to cochlear implant programing. The authors explain evidence, research, set-up, equipment, and procedural practices for ESRTs. Next, authors focus on speech, language, and hearing professionals who provide informational counseling for individuals with hearing loss to facilitate success in a variety of settings. The focus and content of the information changes throughout the life of the individual from initial diagnosis through young adulthood. These shifts, guided by speech-language pathologists in collaboration with professionals from multiple disciplines who work with this population, can help to maximize a successful life trajectory.
