Congenitally, profoundly deaf college students were asked to generate rhymes to 50 target words. Results of the experiment indicated that it is possible for deaf individuals to develop the sensitivity to the phonologic structure of words necessary for rhyming: Approximately half of the responses generated were correct rhymes. Of these correct rhymes, the majority were orthographically similar to their target (e.g., BLUE-glue and TIE-lie), although 30% were orthographically dissimilar to their target (e.g., BLUEthrough and TIE-sky), indicating an ability to generate rhymes independent of orthographic structure. Errors were analyzed in an attempt to determine the basis on which the subjects generated rhymes. Evidence of both orthographic and speechrelated strategies were obtained.

ness of pictorial and verbal information in printed instructional materials for deaf subjects. Four types of instructional formats were pre-pared, varying in proportion of pictorial and verbal information: (a) all pictorial; (b) pre-dominantly pictorial, with some ancillary verbal information; (c) all verbal; and (d) pre-dominantly verbal, with some ancillary pictorial information. Each format was given to a separate group of deaf college students. The instructional materials described sequences of operational procedures to be carried out by subjects on a complex control-display apparatus. Performance was measured by task completion time and error rate. Results
