Abstract

In this article, it is aimed to examine and analyze the development of the CODA (Children of Deaf Adults) identity of the hearing children of deaf adults as a result of their family and communication experiences. For this purpose, semi-structured interviews with 4 female and 7 male CODA were conducted. Findings in interviews were collected under the sub-categories of “Social Differentiation and Biculturalism”, “Sign Language” and “Parental Responsibility and Role Reversal” with the theme, “CODA Identity”, which includes the experiences that shape CODA identity development. As a result of the research, it was foundthat CODAs followed three patterns in the development of CODA identity: Positioning themselves between two cultures and developing a bicultural identity; identifying themselves by the deaf culture and identification with the deaf identity; and identifying themselves as CODAs and accepting CODA identity as a social group identity.

Özet

Bu makalede, CODA (Children of Deaf Adults) olarak tanımlanan işitme engelli ebeveynlerin işiten çocuklarının aile ve iletişim deneyimleri neticesinde edindikleri CODA Kimliğinin gelişiminin incelenmesi ve analiz edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla 4 kadın ve 7 erkek CODA ile yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Görüşmelerde elde edilen bulgular; "CODA Kimliği" teması ile CODA Kimliği gelişimini şekillendiren deneyimlerini içeren "Sosyal Farklılaşma ve Çift Kültürlülük", "İşaret Dili" ve "Ebeveyn Sorumluluğu ve Rol Değişimi" alt kategorileri altında toplanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda CODA'ların aile ve iletişim deneyimleri neticesinde CODA Kimliği gelişiminde üç örüntüyü takip ettikleri görülmüştür: Kendini iki kültür arasında konumlandırma ve bu duruma bağlı kimlik gelişimi; işitme engelli kültürüne ait hissetme ve işitme engelli kimliği ile özdeşim kurma ve bir sosyal kimlik ve grup kimliği olarak CODA Kimliğini tanımlama ve kabullenme.
