Changes in Speech Production in a Child with a Cochlear Implant: Acoustic and Kinematic Evidence.

Goffman, Lisa; Ertmer, David J.; Erdle, Christa

Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, v45 n5 p891-901 Oct 2002

A method is presented for examining change in motor patterns used to produce linguistic contrasts. In this case study, the method is applied to a child who experienced hearing loss at age 3 and received a multi-channel cochlear implant at 7. Post-implant, acoustic durations showed a maturational change. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
