    "title": "The Effects of Late Sign Language Acquisition on Emotion Recall and Expression in Deaf Children",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Children's emotional development is linked to language\ndevelopment for typically developing children and deaf\nchildren with native sign language exposure. However,\napproximately 90% of deaf children are born to hearing parents\nwho are not familiar with sign language. These deaf children\nbegin learning a sign language when they attend a school for\nthe deaf. Late sign language exposure has negative\nconsequences on several aspects of language development. We\ninvestigate whether acquiring sign language late affects\nchildren's emotion recall and channel of emotion expression.\nAfter watching a silent video depicting emotions, late- and\nnative-signing deaf children retold the story in Turkish Sign\nLanguage. Results showed that late signers recalled fewer\nemotions and used fewer signs and facial expressions compared\nto native signers. Manual gestures (non-sign hand movements),\nhead and body movements did not differ across groups. The\nfindings suggest that late sign language acquisition negatively\nimpacts deaf children's ability to recall and express emotions,\nhighlighting the importance of early language exposure for the\ndevelopment of emotion recall.",
