Differences in Music Perception Skills Between Child, Teen and Adult Cochlear Implant Recipients
10 de junio de 2013 actualizado por: University of Zurich
Adult recipients of cochlear implants (CI) generally loose interest in listening to music. This may be due to the rather limited spectral resolution of CI. However, child CI-recipients, if offered the opportunity, like to listen to music. They participate actively in musical acitivities, such as singing, dancing or playing an instrument. Thus, there seems to be a fundamental difference in the music perception of people who receive CI as child or as adult.
This study assesses music perception skills of child, teen and adult cochlear implant recipients in settings with simple tone sequences and in a more complex, melodious context.

Children aged 3 - 10 years
Assessment of music perception skills with cochlear implant recipients aged 3 - 10 years
|
A sequence of tones is presented to participants.
Then the same sequence is presented again, with the 4th tone being one to six half tones different from the first sequence.
Participants are asked to indicate when they hear a difference betweent the first and the second sequence.

Periodo de tiempo |

|
Does the age at which a person receives a cochlear implant influence music perception skills?
Periodo de tiempo: Test and retest are taken within 6 months
|
The test assesses wether cochlear implant carriers are able to hear the difference betweent two sequences of sounds, where in the second sequence on tone is different from the first sequence. If a difference is perceived, then the test assesses how big this difference has to be in order to be heard. The first and the second test are no more than six months apart; both times the same procedure is followed. The test is carried out with three age groups:

Test and retest are taken within 6 months
