Vowel perception in prelingually deafened children with multichannel cochlear implants.
Vowel perception ability for 16 prelingually deafened children using Nucleus 22-channel cochlear implants was studied at 12, 24, and 36 months postimplantation. Information transmission analysis was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the implants in conveying the essential cues required for accurate vowel identification and whether the cues used varied with experience or device use. Individu...
متن کاملBehavioral Inhibition and Cochlear Implants
Cochlear Implants (CIs) enable many prelingually deaf children to acquire spoken language skills although individual speech and language outcomes are quite varied. Differences in a range of underlying cognitive skills may explain a portion of this variance. The aim of this study was to determine if variation in behavioral inhibition skills of prelingually deaf children were related to speech pe...
متن کاملCantonese Tone Discrimination using Amplitude Envelope: Implications for Cochlear Implants
The purpose of the current study is to investigate whether amplitude envelope alone can cue the auditory discrimination of any two lexical tones in Cantonese, and to tease apart the relative contributions of three acoustic factors to lexical tone perception using amplitude envelope. Signalcorrelated noise stimuli were re-synthesized based on six Cantonese lexical tones produced naturally. Thirt...
متن کاملRestoration of auditory nerve synapses in cats by cochlear implants.
Congenital deafness results in abnormal synaptic structure in endings of the auditory nerve. If these abnormalities persist after restoration of auditory nerve activity by a cochlear implant, the processing of time-varying signals such as speech would likely be impaired. We stimulated congenitally deaf cats for 3 months with a six-channel cochlear implant. The device used human speech-processin...
متن کاملAcoustic properties of vocal singing in prelingually-deafened children with cochlear implants or hearing aids.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of the present study was to investigate vocal singing performance of hearing-impaired children with cochlear implants (CI) and hearing aids (HA) as well as to evaluate the relationship between demographic factors of those hearing-impaired children and their singing ability. METHODS Thirty-seven prelingually-deafened children with CIs and 31 prelingually-deafened children...
