Classroom observation sessions were also conducted to triangu late the data obtained from the tests and the interview schedule. The data were analyzed statistically and they revealed the reading comprehension scores of pre- lingual deaf stuclents are poor. The word identification scores of the pre- lingual clear students, however, were good. Although reading comprehension and word identifi cation appear to be related, this relation docs not completely explain the comprehension difficulties encountered by deaf students. Additional factors are required to explain deaf student's diniculties with rcading compr<:hension.
