Abstract

Deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) students often face challenges in comprehending highly specialized texts due to the long time needed to understand their content. This may be due to factors such as the complexity of Japanese syntax, which differs from Japanese sign language. This study describes the results of a questionnaire on the notation method that we proposed based on sign language for DHH individuals. The results revealed that DHH individuals who use sign language correctly answered most questions on sentence structure when using the proposed notation methods than when using Japanese sentences.
