Psychophysical and Speech Perceptual Studies on Cochlear Implant Patients

One of the most important findings in cochlear implant research has been the orderly variation in perceptual characteristics produced by intra­ cochlear electrodes in accordance with the tonotopic organization of the cochlea. The electrical signal dimension of electrode position has there­ fore been used extensively for presenting speech information to cochlear implant patients. This paper describes further psychophysical and speech perceptual results on the perceptual characteristics produced by intra­ cochlear electrodes.
