Speech Intelligibility of Children with Cochlear Implants, Tactile, or Hearing Aids.
Osberger, Mary Joe; And Others
Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v36 n1 p186-203 Feb 1993
This study found that children with early onset of deafness who received single-channel or multichannel cochlear implants before age 10 demonstrated higher speech intelligibility than children receiving their device after age 10. There was no obvious difference in speech intelligibility scores as a function of type of device (implant or tactile aid.) (Author/JDD)
