Speech intelligibility of young school-aged children in the presence of real-life classroom noise.

abstract：:The purpose of this study was to develop a test to assess the ability of persons with cochlear implants (CIs) to interpret musical signals. Up to this time, the main direction in outcomes studies of cochlear implantation has been in relation to speech recognition abilities. With improvement in CI hardware and processi...
