Perception and Psychoacoustics of Speech in Cochlear Implant Users
Cochlear implants (CIs) are prosthetic devices that restore hearing in deaf individuals via electric stimulation of the auditory nerve through an electrode array inserted in the cochlea. The device consists of a microphone and an externally worn speech processor that converts acoustic signals into electric signals. The speech signal coded with electric pulses is then delivered via a wireless tr...
متن کاملCross-modal reorganization and speech perception in cochlear implant users.
Recent work suggests that once the auditory cortex of deaf persons has been reorganized by cross-modal plasticity, it can no longer respond to signals from a cochlear implant (CI) installed subsequently. To further examine this issue, we compared the evoked potentials involved in the processing of visual stimuli between CI users and hearing controls. The stimuli were concentric circles replaced...
متن کاملLong-term speech perception in elderly cochlear implant users.
IMPORTANCE A review of a test battery presented in both quiet and noise may clarify what the progression of speech perception abilities is in older adult cochlear implant users and whether the performance declines with advancing age. OBJECTIVE To examine whether older adults (≥65 years) with cochlear implants maintain stable speech perception performance after at least 10 years of listening e...
متن کاملSpeech perception in pre-lingual deaf users of cochlear implant.
BACKGROUND cochlear implant is a rather processing electronic device in terms of its benefits, as it provides the deaf child with the appropriation of incidental oral language. AIM to evaluate the hearing performance of the first 60 children with pre-lingual sensorineural hearing loss who were implanted at the Audiologic Research Centre of the Hospital de Reabilitação de Anomalias Craniofacia...
متن کاملMusic Training Can Improve Music and Speech Perception in Pediatric Mandarin-Speaking Cochlear Implant Users
Due to limited spectral resolution, cochlear implants (CIs) do not convey pitch information very well. Pitch cues are important for perception of music and tonal language; it is possible that music training may improve performance in both listening tasks. In this study, we investigated music training outcomes in terms of perception of music, lexical tones, and sentences in 22 young (4.8 to 9.3 ...
