Knollman-Porter, Kelly; Bevelhimer, Andrew; Hux, Karen; Wallace, Sarah E.; Hughes, Michael R.; Brown, Jessica A. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Background: Researchers have used eye-tracking technology to investigate eye movements in neurotypical adults (NAs) when reading. The technology can provide comparable information about people with aphasia (PWA). Eye fixations occurring when PWA do and do not have access to text-to-speech (TTS) technology are of interest because the support…

Werfel, Krystal L.; Hendricks, Alison Eisel – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2023
Purpose: Children with cochlear implants (CIs) have difficulty with literacy, and although it is established that phonological processing underlies literacy skills in children with typical hearing (TH), the relation of phonological processing and literacy in children with CIs is not fully understood. This study evaluated the contributions of…

Figueroa, Mario; Darbra, Sònia; Silvestre, Núria – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2020
Previous research has shown a possible link between reading comprehension and theory of mind (ToM), but these findings are unclear in adolescents with cochlear implants (CI). In the present study, reading comprehension and ToM were assessed in adolescents with CI and the relation between both skills was also studied. Two sessions were performed on…

Gissel, Stig T. – Journal of Information Technology Education: Research, 2015
This study was undertaken to design, evaluate and refine an eBook-feature that supports students' decoding of unfamiliar text. The feature supports students' independent reading of eBooks with text-to-speech, graded support in the form of syllabification and rhyme analogy, and by dividing the word material into different categories based on the…

James, Deborah; Rajput, Kaukab; Brinton, Julie; Goswami, Usha – Applied Psycholinguistics, 2009
In the current study, we explore the influence of orthographic knowledge on phonological awareness in children with cochlear implants and compare developmental associations to those found for hearing children matched for word reading level or chronological age. We show an influence of orthographic knowledge on syllable and phoneme awareness in…

Spencer, Linda J.; Tomblin, J. Bruce – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2009
This study investigated the phonological processing skills of 29 children with prelingual, profound hearing loss with 4 years of cochlear implant experience. Results were group matched with regard to word-reading ability and mother's educational level with the performance of 29 hearing children. Results revealed that it is possible to obtain a…
