Objectives: This study quantitatively assesses how cochlear implants (CIs) and vocoder
simulations of CIs influence the identification of linguistic and emotional prosody in nontonal …

Objectives: Children with cochlear implants (CIs) vary widely in their ability to identify
emotions in speech. The causes of this variability are unknown, but this knowledge will be …

Background People who are culturally Deaf and people who have an intersex condition
often experience medicalization and pathologization by contemporary healthcare providers …

Speech comprehension counts as a benchmark outcome of cochlear implants (CIs)—
disregarding the communicative importance of efficient integration of audiovisual (AV) socio …

For cochlear implant (CI) users, degraded spectral input hampers the understanding of
prosodic vocal emotion, especially in difficult listening conditions. Using a vocoder …

Objectives: Normally-hearing (NH) listeners rely more on prosodic cues than on lexical-
semantic cues for emotion perception in speech. In everyday spoken communication, the …

Deaf individuals may compensate for the lack of the auditory input by showing enhanced
capacities in certain visual tasks. Here we assessed whether this also applies to recognition …

The aim of the present study was to test whether multisensory interactions of emotional
signals are modulated by intermodal attention and emotional valence. Faces, voices and …

Cochlear implanted (CI) adults with acquired deafness are known to depend on
multisensory integration skills (MSI) for speech comprehension through the fusion of speech …

Objective Cochlear implants (CI) provide users with a spectrally degraded acoustic signal
that could impact their auditory emotional experiences. This study evaluated the effects of CI …
