Use of the storage oscilloscope to train deaf children to convey meaning in sentences through intonation control

This paper is a review of a study to determine if profoundly deaf adolescents could be trained in intonation control in using a two-channel storage oscilloscope.

Evaluation of sentence list equivalency for the TIMIT sentences by cochlear implant recipients

The equivalency of 34 TIMIT sentence lists was evaluated using adult cochlear implant recipients to determine if they should be recommended for future clinical or research use. Because these sentences incorporate gender, dialect and speaking rate variations, they have the potential to better represent speech recognition abilities in real-world communication situations.

Use of the storage oscilloscope to train deaf children to convey meaning in sentences through intonation control

This paper is a review of a study to determine if profoundly deaf adolescents could be trained in intonation control in using a two-channel storage oscilloscope.

The effectiveness of directional microphone alignment in the Baha Divino

The primary objective of this research study is to determine if off-vertical directional microphone alignments of the Baha Divino significantly impact the Reception Threshold for Sentences (RTS, in dB) using the Hearing in Noise Test (HINT) in a diffuse listening situation.

More appropriate: additional stories for students who are hearing impaired using the "Specialized Program Individualizing Reading Excellence" (S.P.I.R.E.) curriculum

S.P.I.R.E., at use at Central Institute for the Deaf, is a comprehensive, multi-sensory systematic reading and language program that targets at risk and struggling students. The purpose of this project was to write additional stories and sentences for students who are hearing impaired through reader 2 that may be used in conjunction with the exiting stories and supplements.

Teaching speech to hearing-impaired children using the Speech Skills Worksheet: Phonemes

This paper addresses teaching speech skills (accurate production of phonemes and use of phonemes in isolation, syllables, words, phrases and sentences) to hearing impaired students through the use of the Speech Skills Worksheet and an accompanying Teaching Guide.

The Developmental Sentence Analysis and the Grammatical Analysis of Elicited Language - Complex Level: a correlative study

This paper studies the Developmental Sentence Analysis (DSA), which measures syntactic maturity of spontaneous utterances, and the Grammatical Analysis of Elicited Language (GAEL), which uses a highly structured set of games and activities designed to elicit specific target sentences.
