TLDR
Whereas the effect of age of hearing aid fitting on child outcomes was weak, a younger age at cochlear implant switch-on was significantly associated with better outcomes for children with cochLear implants at 3 years of age.Abstract:
Objective:To address the question of whether, on a population level, early detection and amplification improve outcomes of children with hearing impairment.Design:All families of children who were born between 2002 and 2007, and who presented for hearing services below 3 years of age at Australian Hread more

Social-emotional competences in deaf and hard-of-hearing toddlers – results from an empirical study with two current parent questionnaires

Expressive vocabulary development in children with moderate hearing loss - the impact of auditory variables and early consonant production.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the early expressive vocabulary development in a group of children with moderate hearing loss (HL) from 18 30 months to 6 months and found that children with HL (n = 8) produced a similar number of words as children with normal hearing (NH), but fewer at 24 and 30 months.

Language of Early- and Later-identified Children With Hearing Loss
TL;DR: Significantly better language development was associated with early identification of hearing loss and early intervention and the variable on which the two groups differed must be considered a potential explanation for the language advantage documented in the earlier-identified group.
