Ubiquitous acoustic sensors and actuators, i.e., microphones and loudspeakers, are among the most common components in consumer electronic devices. Traditionally, these components have been primarily used for sound-related tasks, including voice-user interfaces, sound playback, and sound event detection. However, with the growing demand for…

Peer reviewedLe Normand, Marie-Thérèse; Thai-Van, Hung – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: One of the most consistent findings reported in the paediatric cochlear implant (CI) literature is the heterogeneity of language performance observed more in grammatical morphology than in lexicon or pragmatics. As most of the corpus studies addressing these issues have been conducted in English, it is unclear whether their results can…

Evaluation Devices in the Narratives of Deaf/Hard of Hearing and Hearing Arabic-Speaking Adolescents
Khaloob Kawar; Joel Walters; Sveta Fichman – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Pragmatic language use in general and the use of evaluation devices (EDs) are very important components in everyday communication and expressing thoughts and feelings in narrative production. However, very little is known about the use of evaluative devices in the narratives of Arabic-speaking adolescents, especially those who are deaf…

Valentina Persici; Giulia Castelletti; Letizia Guerzoni; Domenico Cuda; Marinella Majorano – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Variability in the vocabulary outcomes of children with cochlear implants (CIs) is partially explained by child-directed speech (CDS) characteristics. Yet, relatively little is known about whether and how mothers adapt their lexical and prosodic characteristics to the child's hearing status (before and after implantation, and compared…

Lauren E. Zaylskie; Elizabeth E. Biggs; Kaitlyn J. Minchin; Zoe K. Abel – Augmentative and Alternative Communication, 2024
Many children who require hospitalization in the pediatric intensive care unit (ICU) are unable to or have difficulty communicating through speech, whether because of preexisting or acute conditions. Children who are unable to be heard and understood using only speech benefit from aided augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), including…

Meiyun Wu; Haotian Liu; Xue Zhao; Li Lu; Yuyang Wang; Chaogang Wei; Yuhe Liu; Yu-Xuan Zhang – Developmental Science, 2025
To reveal the formation process of speech processing with early hearing experiences, we tracked the development of functional connectivity in the auditory and language-related cortical areas of 84 (36 female) congenitally deafened toddlers using repeated functional near-infrared spectroscopy for up to 36 months post cochlear implantation (CI).…

Umut Zeki; Tolgay Karanfiller; Kamil Yurtkan – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
The developmental, characteristics and educational competencies of students who need special education are developing slowly in compared to their agemates. This is because their expressive language is different. In order to overcome these challenges, assistive technologies can be used under the supervision of the teachers. In this paper, a person…

Deaf-blindness is a type of dual disability wherein visual and auditory capabilities are significantly impaired. Special communication methods have been developed for the deaf-blind community. Yet, these methods require that both people involved have prior knowledge and training to successfully communicate, limiting deaf-blind people's social…

Freeman, Valerie – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2023
This study is part of a series on speech-based first impressions of prelingually deaf cochlear implant (CI) users with differing speech intelligibility. Hiring managers with typical hearing (TH) rated CI users and TH young adults on various personality traits and suitability as job applicants after hearing recorded speech samples. Similar to prior…

Boonen, Nathalie; Kloots, Hanne; Nurzia, Pietro; Gillis, Steven – Journal of Child Language, 2023
Speaking intelligibly is an important achievement in children's language development. How far do congenitally severe-to-profound hearing-impaired children who received a cochlear implant (CI) in the first two years of their life advance on the path to intelligibility in comparison to children with typical hearing (NH)? Spontaneous speech samples…

Sofia Hein Machado; Alex Sweeney; Arturo E. Hernandez; Ferenc Bunta – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate how the amount of home language use between the primary caregiver and bilingual Spanish- and English-speaking children with hearing loss who use cochlear implants (CIs) versus their bilingual age-matched peers with normal hearing (NH) can impact speech outcomes in the home language. Method:…

Purpose: The purpose of the current study was to assess dual-task interference (i.e., changes between the dual-task and baseline condition) in a listening effort dual-task paradigm in normal-hearing (NH) adults, hearing aid (HA) users, and cochlear implant (CI) users. Method: Three groups of 31 participants were included: (a) NH adults, (b) HA…

Purpose: Our aim was to assess the different voice prostheses (VPs) to identify the most efficient, safest, patient-tailored, longest lifetime, and inexpensive VPs and assess the different factors affecting their quality. Method: In September 2017, 15 databases were searched to include all randomized controlled trials. A new search was done in May…

Purpose: Phoneme categorization (PC) for voice onset time and second formant transition was studied in adult cochlear implant (CI) users with early-onset deafness and hearing controls. Method: Identification and discrimination tasks were administered to 30 participants implanted before 4 years of age, 21 participants implanted after 7 years of…

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the speech prosody of postlingually deaf cochlear implant (CI) users compared with control speakers without hearing or speech impairment. Method: Speech recordings of 74 CI users (37 males and 37 females) and 72 age-balanced control speakers (36 males and 36 females) are considered. All…
