Subject: [AUDITORY] speech comprehension in adults with CIs From: Valeriy Shafiro <firosha@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2018 10:19:40 -0500 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--000000000000dc1d9805746c419e Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Hello List, I am looking for previous studies that examined speech comprehension in postlingual adults with cochlear implants. So far I am coming up short -- most studies looked at speech recognition/identification -- the ability to repeat words one hears. I am looking instead for studies that used speech tasks that required comprehension of word or sentences meaning to perform. For instance, answering question about a sentence or a passage rather than just repeating it. There is some language processing literature, but mainly focusing on the pediatric population. There are also some studies of cognitive abilities in CI adults but not addressing speech comprehension specifically. If anyone is aware of any please let me know and I will be happy to compile and share with the list. Best wishes, Valeriy --000000000000dc1d9805746c419e Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr">Hello List,<div><br></div><div><div><font color=3D"#000000= " face=3D"Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style=3D"font-size:1= 6px">I am looking for previous studies that examined speech comprehension i= n postlingual adults with cochlear implants.=C2=A0 =C2=A0So far I am coming= up=C2=A0short -- most studies looked at speech recognition/identification = -- the ability to repeat words one hears.=C2=A0 I am looking instead for st= udies that used speech tasks that required comprehension of word or sentenc= es meaning to perform.=C2=A0 For instance, answering question about a sente= nce or a passage rather than just repeating it.=C2=A0 There is some languag= e processing literature, but mainly focusing on the=C2=A0pediatric populati= on.=C2=A0 There are also some studies of cognitive abilities in CI adults b= ut not addressing speech comprehension=C2=A0specifically.=C2=A0 If anyone i= s aware of any please let me know and I will be happy to compile and share = with the list.=C2=A0=C2=A0</span></font></div><div><span style=3D"color:rgb= (0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px"><br>= </span></div><div>Best wishes,</div></div><div><br></div><div>Valeriy</div>= </div> --000000000000dc1d9805746c419e--
