1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Communication approaches used in the education of Deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) individuals, such as spoken language, sign language, total communication, and bilingual-bicultural approach, have long been debated. Each has its strengths and limitations and is shaped by individual and contextual factors. Understanding and implementing these approaches rely not only on theoretical frameworks but also on the knowledge gained from professional experiences in the field. This study aims to examine the experiences of diverse role professionals (academics with teaching backgrounds) regarding communication approaches in DHH education within the Turkish context. Using a phenomenological design, the study explored how participants' pedagogical decisions, teaching and academic backgrounds, undergraduate education processes, and their relationships with educational policies shaped their communication choices. The findings reveal that structural and pedagogical factors beyond individual attitudes are decisive in shaping communication preferences. This research reveals the factors shaping communication approaches and emphasizes the need for inclusive, context sensitive practices.
