Franz, Darla C.; Caleffe-Schenck, Nancy; Kirk, Karen Iler – Volta Review, 2004
An instrument for measuring and tracking changes in auditory skill development over time was developed for use with a group of children with profound deafness who received a MED-EL COMBI 40+ cochlear implant. The aim of this paper is to describe the use of this instrument, the "Checklist of Auditory Communication Skills", and to present results…
