Peter,Not sure you will be interested in but there was some empirical work on the issue of deaf people's use of private (egocentric) speech: Jamieson, J.R. (1995). Visible thought: deaf children’s use of signed and spoken private speech. Sign Language Studies, 86. 63-79. At the end of the nineties Elizabeth McCarthy finished her doctoral tesis on this issue too, at Stanford University, advised by Rafael Díaz.
