Cochlear implants (CIs) are the world's most successful sensory prosthesis and have been
the subject of intense research and development in recent decades. We critically review the …

When listening with a cochlear implant through one ear and acoustically through the other,
binaural benefits and spatial hearing abilities are generally poorer than in other bilaterally …

Speech recognition performance was measured in normal-hearing and cochlear-implant
listeners with maskers consisting of either steady-state speech-spectrum-shaped noise or a …

Speech comprehension abilities decline with age and with age-related hearing loss, but it is
unclear how this decline expresses in terms of central neural mechanisms. The current study …

Cochlear implants (CIs) are prosthetic devices that restore hearing in deaf individuals via
electric stimulation of the auditory nerve through an electrode array inserted in the cochlea …

In normal acoustic hearing the mapping of acoustic frequency information onto the
appropriate cochlear place is a natural biological function, but in cochlear implants it is …

Cochlear implants (CIs) are neuroprostheses that partially restore hearing for people with
severe-to-profound hearing loss. While CIs can provide good speech perception in quiet …

Forward-masked psychophysical spatial tuning curves (fmSTCs) were measured in twelve
cochlear-implant subjects, six using bipolar stimulation (Nucleus devices) and six using …

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of a number of speech
intelligibility indices in terms of predicting the intelligibility of vocoded speech. Design: Noise …

Children's performance on psychoacoustic tasks improves with age, but inadequate auditory
input may delay this maturation. Cochlear implant (CI) users receive a degraded auditory …
