Studies on the reading acquisition of deaf children investigate the similarities and differences in the reading process between these readers and typical hearing readers. There is no consensus on the nature of the reading process among deaf readers, whether they use the same reading processing strategies as typical readers or depend on other strategies to close the gap. The present study aimed to test the types of strategies used to process written words by deaf Arabic readers with prelingual deafness, compared to their hearing peers, and to test the effectiveness of deaf readers' use of these strategies. Three experimental paradigms were tested. The findings indicated that deaf Arabic readers rely on essentially similar processing strategies to those used by hearing readers. However, deaf Arabic readers employ these strategies with significantly less effectiveness. The results are discussed in light of international data.

Sign language (SL) is a means of communication that is used to bridge the gap between the deaf, hearing-impaired, and others. For Arabic speakers who are hard of hearing or deaf, Arabic Sign Language (ArSL) is a form of nonverbal communication. The development of effective Arabic sign language recognition (ArSLR) tools helps facilitate this communication, especially for people who are not familiar with ArSLR.

Article Synopsis
- - The study explored the social-emotional functioning of children with typical hearing and those who are deaf or hard of hearing (D/HH) in Israel, focusing on parental reports from both Arabic and Jewish communities.
- - A total of 242 parents participated, revealing that parents of D/HH children reported more challenges like emotional symptoms and peer problems compared to parents of typically hearing children, with notable differences between Jewish and Arab parents.
- - The findings emphasize the social-emotional difficulties D/HH children face, especially in peer relationships, highlighting the need for culturally sensitive interventions to address these issues.

This study explores the narrative skills of deaf and hearing children within the context of Arabic diglossia, a linguistic environment characterised by significant differences between spoken dialects and formal written language. Using Stein and Glenn's (1979) and Bruner's (1991) frameworks, the research analyses the narrative constructions of 13 hearing and 13 deaf children in Kuwait. The findings reveal that hearing children, benefiting from consistent exposure to spoken and formal Arabic, produced more coherent and detailed narratives compared to deaf children.
