Abstract | Deciding on an educational setting for children who are deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) is a complex process that is not well understood. In the present study, the researchers' objective was to understand the factors caregivers consider when choosing a school for their child. Six caregivers of children who were DHH participated in semistructured interviews, which were coded into three themes (Child-Centered, Familial, School) and five subthemes (Inclusion, Additional Needs and Well-Being, Complex Process, Information Input and Flow, School Systems and Personnel). An unexpected theme (On Reflection) and three additional subthemes (Caregiver Perceptions of Education, School Character, No Regrets) were also identified. A highlighted finding is that when choosing an educational setting, caregivers of children who are DHH use decision-making processes that are complex and multifaceted. Practical implications for professionals supporting caregivers through decision-making processes are outlined, and applications for practice are suggested. (As Provided). |
