Assessing Fine-Grained Speech Discrimination in Young Children With Bilateral Cochlear Implants
|

Abstract:
HYPOTHESIS: Children of 2 to 3 years old with cochlear implants can perform consonant discriminations using fine-grained acoustic cues. BACKGROUND: Children born with severe-to-profound deafness are provided with early cochlear implantation (<2 yr) to maximize oral communication outcomes. Little is known regarding their abilities to discriminate consonant contrasts for accurately identifying speech sounds. METHODS: Using a Reaching for Sound paradigm to collect behavioral responses, consonant contrast discrimination was measured in 13 children with bilateral cochlear implants (BiCIs; aged 28–37 mo), and 13 age-matched normal-hearing (NH) children. Four contrast pairs were tested: 1) place + voicing, 2) place, 3) voicing, and 4) reduced voice-onset-time cue. Using standard processing strategies, electrodograms showing pulsatile stimulation patterns were created retrospectively to assess the spectral-temporal cues delivered through the clinical speech processors. RESULTS: As a group, children with BiCIs were able to discriminate all consonant contrasts at a level that was above chance, but their performance was poorer than NH children. Larger individual variability in discrimination performance was found in children with BiCIs. Stepwise regression revealed that, in the place contrast, chronological age was correlated with improved discrimination performance among children with BiCIs. CONCLUSION: Children with BiCIs were able to discriminate consonant contrasts using fine-grained spectral-temporal cues above chance level but more poorly than their NH peers. Electrodogram analysis confirmed the access to spectral-temporal cues in the consonant contrasts through clinical speech processors. However, the cue saliency might not have be enough for children with BiCIs to achieve the same discrimination accuracy as NH children.
