| Sumario: | Behavior Analysis has a historical relationship with Special Education. However, some revisions indicate a low frequency of empirical studies on deafness and hearing impairment, both at national and international level. In this context, the objective of this study was to analyze publications on deafness / hearing impairment in international behavioral analysis journals between the years 1968 to 2018. The method used was a literature review, in which the steps consisted of: selection of international journals listed on the Association for Behavior Analysis International (ABAI) webpage; applying of search terms; reading of titles and abstracts for the application of the inclusion and exclusion criteria; complete reading of the papers selected for analysis. The variables of interest were quantitative and qualitative results presented in the papers and their classification in one or more philosophical schools in the history of deafness: oralism, total communication or bilingualism. From the 30 papers selected, 23 were empirical research and 7 were theoretical. The data indicate a historical tradition of papers on behavioral analysis and deafness or hearing impairment, a significant variation in the topics addressed and the influence of philosophical schools in the history of deafness, presenting studies on oralism, total communication and bilingualism. It is discussed the need to conduct further studies on the subject, whether applied or theoretical, and promote new studies for the reflection on the relationship between behavior analysis and its social commitments of philosophical approaches to teach deaf individuals. |
