Audiologic Guidelines for the Diagnosis & Treatment of Otitis Media in Children
The American Academy of Audiology considers that developmental deficits in communication and behavioral/attention problems experienced by some children with recurrent otitis media are, for the most part, auditory-based. There is increasing evidence that the age of onset, as well as the nature, degree, and configuration of the peripheral conductive hearing loss which occurs secondary to otitis media, are critical components that place children at risk for developing communication and learning disorders. Early identification and management of hearing loss associated with otitis media is important for optimum developmental outcome.

Audiology Clinical Practice Algorithms and Statements
In 1996 and 1997, three major national organizations whose membership is comprised of or includes audiologists and speech pathologists, professionals who deal with hearing, speech, and language problems, began exploring ways to make clinical services and clinical decision making provided by their members more effective. This was done in the context of the efforts by the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, to enhance the quality, appropriateness, and effectiveness of health care services and access to such services.

Joint Committee on Infant Hearing
from http://nc.agbell.org
Year 2007 Position Statement: Principles and Guidelines for Early Hearing Detection and Intervention Programs
The Joint Committee on Infant Hearing (JCIH) endorses early detection of and intervention for infants with hearing loss. The goal of early hearing detection and intervention (EHDI) is to maximize linguistic competence and literacy development for children who are deaf or hard of hearing. Without appropriate opportunities to learn language, these children will fall behind their hearing peers in communication, cognition, reading, and social-emotional development.

Theory of Mind and Emotion Recognition in Children with Hearing Loss
Social behaviors, personal adjustment, emotion regulation, and emotion understanding can be adversely affected for children with hearing loss. These delays are influenced by speech and language ability, but other factors, such as emotion recognition and ToM, might influence development of social and emotional abilities in children with hearing loss as well. Emotion recognition, including the ability to discriminate the various expressions of emotions in facial, gestural, and verbal display, is not well defined for children with hearing loss. ToM refers to the understanding that people have intentions, desires, knowledge, and beliefs, and that these mental states might be different from their own and influence one?s behavior. This understanding underlies the development of many abilities that involve social cognition, including symbolic play, role-taking ability, and referential communication. Deaf children with hearing parents and those with cochlear implants are delayed in ToM development.
