Predicting Music Enjoyment In Cochlear Implant Users, Rose Bradley Jan 2009

Predicting Music Enjoyment In Cochlear Implant Users, Rose Bradley

Independent Studies and Capstones

Most cochlear implant (CI) users perceive music poorly. Little is known, however, about the musical enjoyment received by CI users. The author examined possible relationships between musical enjoyment and music perception tasks through the use of 1) multiple musical tests, and 2) two groups of listeners: normal-hearing (NH) listeners with a CI-simulation and actual CI users. The two groups’ performances are compared to determine whether NH participants listening to music via CI-simulation software are a good model for actual CI users for perceiving music.


Resources For Non-English Speaking Parents Of Children Who Are Deaf Or Hard Of Hearing And Learning English As Their Primary Language, Jennifer Olumba Jan 2009

Resources For Non-English Speaking Parents Of Children Who Are Deaf Or Hard Of Hearing And Learning English As Their Primary Language, Jennifer Olumba

Independent Studies and Capstones

This study examined culturally and linguistically diverse families with deaf and hard of hearing children. A literature review consisted of looking at the rate of immigration to the United States, English speaking parents of children who are deaf and hard of hearing, bilingual education, and the obstacles bilingual parents of children who are deaf and hard of hearing may face. The data obtained was used to compile a list of resources for parents of children who are deaf and hard of hearing available in languages other than English in order to assist these families.


Development Of A Simple Index To Predict Benefit And Satisfaction From Amplification, Katie Niehl Jan 2009

Development Of A Simple Index To Predict Benefit And Satisfaction From Amplification, Katie Niehl

Independent Studies and Capstones

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of non-audiological patient-based variables; amount of bother, importance of improved hearing, and expectations, as reliable predictors of benefit and satisfaction from amplification. Study findings were then used to develop two initial prognostic indices.


The Effectiveness Of Directional Microphone Alignment In The Baha Divino, Kristi Ann Marie Oeding Jan 2009

The Effectiveness Of Directional Microphone Alignment In The Baha Divino, Kristi Ann Marie Oeding

Independent Studies and Capstones

An Exploration Of The Role Of Narrative Skills In Higher-Level Reading Comprehension Of Teenagers With Hearing Loss, Anita New Jan 2009

An Exploration Of The Role Of Narrative Skills In Higher-Level Reading Comprehension Of Teenagers With Hearing Loss, Anita New

Independent Studies and Capstones

This Study examines the relationship between scores on adolescents’ self-generated narratives and standardized reading-comprehension scores. This relationship is also compared with the more simple language metrics: vocabulary and syntax.


Evaluation Of Different Signal Processing Options In Unilateral And Bilateral Cochlear Freedom Recipients Using R-Space Background Noise, Alison Brockmeyer Jan 2009

Evaluation Of Different Signal Processing Options In Unilateral And Bilateral Cochlear Freedom Recipients Using R-Space Background Noise, Alison Brockmeyer

Independent Studies and Capstones

Understanding speech in the presence of noise is a difficult task for cochlear implant patients. This study examines the real-world effectiveness of different signal processing approaches available in the Cochlear Nucleus Freedom device to enhance speech perception in noise for cochlear implant recipients.
