Discrimination of Voice Pitch and Vocal-Tract Length in Cochlear Implant Users
OBJECTIVES When listening to two competing speakers, normal-hearing (NH) listeners can take advantage of voice differences between the speakers. Users of cochlear implants (CIs) have difficulty in perceiving speech on speech. Previous literature has indicated sensitivity to voice pitch (related to fundamental frequency, F0) to be poor among implant users, while sensitivity to vocal-tract length...
متن کاملVoice discrimination in cochlear implant users
Abstract Due to the limited processing of spectral cues, voice discrimination might be restricted in cochlear implant (CI) users. A very basic representation of different voices is given by the speaker gender. Important characteristics are the fundamental frequency (f0) and the vocal tract length (VTL) which influences formant frequencies. Based on a natural utterance these parameters were expl...
متن کاملReduced visual discrimination in cochlear implant users.
The aim of the study was to investigate low-level visual function in cochlear implant users. Spatial frequency discrimination was assessed in 16 adults with normal hearing and 18 adults with profound deafness who had a cochlear implant. Thresholds were measured with sinusoidal gratings using a two-alternative temporal forced-choice procedure combined with an adaptive staircase. Cochlear implant...
متن کاملEFFECT OF A UDITORY-VERBAL REHABILITATION ON VOICE PARAMETERS IN CHILD COCHLEAR IMPLANT USERS
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of auditory-verbal rehabilitation on voice parameters after implantation with cochlear implants 2 and 5 months after rehabilitation and compare them with normal voice children (under 12 years of age). A perceptive and electroacoustic evaluation of voice was carried out through a digital analysis after implantation and rehabilitation. The study was pe...
