Early linguistic development as seen in four young profoundly hearing impaired children

This paper studies the linguistic development of four profoundly hearing-impaired children, and how the children induced rules for developing linguistically.

The structural component of linguistic meaning and the reading of normally hearing and deaf children

This paper discusses an experiment in psycholinguistic method and its application to the field of education.

Ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (oVEMP) using air conducted sound: Effect of body position on threshold

The primary objective of this research study is to determine if various body positions for ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP) testing demonstrate differentiation of the saccule and utricle through threshold responses.

Verification of computed tomographic estimates of cochlear implant array position: A micro-CT and histological analysis

We examine the efficacy two volume spatial registration of pre and postoperative clinical computed tomography (CT) imaging to verify post-operative electrode array placement in cochlear implant (CI) patients. To measure the degree of accuracy with which the composite image predicts in-vivo placement of the array, we replicate the CI surgical process in cadaver heads. Pre-operative, post-operative, micro CT imaging and histology are utilized for verification.

The role of linguistic input in shaping the conversational language of deaf preschoolers with a cochlear implant

This study investigates whether mothers who have children with cochlear implants fine-tune their own vocabulary and sentence complexity to that of their child. Whether and how fine-tuning leads to faster growth in these language skills is explored.
