Effects of Phonotactic Probabilities on the Processing of Spoken Words and Nonwords by Postlingually Deafened Adults with Cochlear Implants.

Volta Review, v102 n4 p283-302 2000

Two online tasks (an auditory same-different task and an auditory lexical decision task) examined the use of phonotactic information by 18 adults with cochlear implants. Cochlear implant patients with better word recognition abilities produced patterns of results similar to results obtained from listeners with normal hearing. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
