Excellent, this time with a reference attatched.... thanks....
btw... is that the article without the title.....?
I can find marshark, et. al. 2001, 2007, 1994 and 1998, but no 2005....
Can you be more specific?

What I am wondering about, is not if they can reach the same level, or achieve higher levels compared to speech only,
I am interested in - how many children without CI are left behind.

What, instead of comparing children that made it through school and highschool; comparing deaf children with CI and deaf children without CI and see how many have get to a certain level.
The question is.... What percentage of hearing children, deaf children with CI and deaf children without CI make it to a certain educational level..
