Development of Deaf Bicultural Identity
Abstract
Based on Epstein's model of self-theory, the importance of providing deaf children with opportunities to develop a solid deaf identity at an early age is discussed. Seven categories of possible identities for deaf people are outlined and the stages of developing a bicultural awareness presented. Case studies detailing these stages are discussed.

Holcomb introduced culturally isolated and culturally separate identity categories, where individuals dismiss all interaction with hearing persons or minimise interaction with the hearing community.
“Holcomb (1997:90–91) who is also deaf introduced culturally isolated and culturally separate identity categories in his model.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
