Cory Portnuff’s research makes CU news!
The pilot study (Arehart, Fligor and Portnuff) asked 29 teens in the Denver metro area a series of questions about how they used their players, as well as their susceptibility to hearing loss and if they believed a decrease in volume meant a decrease in music quality. Results of the study indicated teenagers who receive pressure from their peers or others to turn down the volume of their iPods instead turn them up higher.
This study was first issued as a CU press release and was also published in the Boulder Daily Camera.

Elaine Gale publishes her dissertation!
Elaines dissertation was published in American Annals of the Deaf. She studied mother child interaction between deaf toddlers with deaf parents and hearing parents and hearing toddlers with hearing parents. Her research shows that while deaf mothers were more responsive to their deaf toddlers, and had longer conversations, there were fewer instances of joint attention using language. This may be due to the visual nature of communication.
Elaine currently is an Assistant Professor at Hunter College, City University of New York, in New York City. She also directs the graduate program in Deaf Education. Gale, E. and Schick, B. (2009). Symbol-Infused Joint Attention and Language Use in Mothers with Deaf and Hearing Toddlers. AAD, 153, 484-503.
