The effects of phonological and semantic priming in speech production

This paper is a review of experiments to investigate the influence of experimental task, level of processing, and time course in speech production via the priming paradigm.

An examination of the appropriateness of the CID grammatical analysis of elicted language as an instrument to compare language acquisition in deaf children enrolled in cued speech vs. oral and signed english programs

This paper discusses a study to compare test results of the CID GAEL test among hearing impaired children who are enrolled in cued speech vs. oral vs. signed english programs.

Detection of words in real-speech background noise by profoundly deaf children

This paper discusses a study to assess the performance of profoundly deaf children in detection tasks with speech as the background noise.

Identification of normal and abnormal acoustic speech patterns by profoundly hearing-impaired children

This paper discusses a study to determine if profoundly hearing impaired children could identify acoustically normal speech patterns from abnormal speech patterns.

Effects of combined electric and acoustic hearing on speech perception of a pediatric cochlear implant user

The primary objective of this study was to document the benefits and possible detriments of combining ipsilateral acoustic hearing in the cochlear implant ear of a patient with preserved low frequency residual hearing post cochlear implantation. The secondary aim was to examine the efficacy of various cochlear implant mapping and hearing aid fitting strategies in relation to electro-acoustic benefits.

Independent project in speech and hearing

This paper consists of a bibliography of materials for speech therapy.

An examination of cued speech as a tool for language, literacy, and bilingualism for children who are deaf or hard of hearing

This study examines the purpose and uses of Cued Speech, its benefits and limitations, and its effectiveness as a tool for language, literacy, and bilingualism.

The inner-relationship among lipreading ability, auditory speech perception ability, hearing loss, and language level in hearing impaired children

This paper reviews a study done to determine the correlation between lipreading, auditory speech perception, language abilities, and hearing loss levels in hearing impaired children.

A test of auditory-visual speech perception for hearing-impaired children

This paper discusses a test for speech perception and scoring to test likelihood of success with mainstreaming.

Comparison of speech processor MAP minimum (T) and maximum (C) levels with psychophysical thresholds and maximum acceptable loudness levels in users of the Nucleus 22 cochlear implant system

This paper discusses the Nucleus 22 cochlear implant.

Speech and the hearing-impaired child: evaluation and revision of the CID Speech Skills Worksheet

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the current use of the Central Institute for the Deaf’s Speech Skills Worksheet by teacher of the deaf and speech-language pathologists, review the current literature on speech development in hearing-impaired children, and apply the findings to develop a more comprehensive Speech Skills Worksheet.

This paper discusses cued speech.

Recognition of temporarily modified speech stimuli

This paper studies the relationship between consonant duration and recognition of these consanants by listeners with high frequency hearing loss.

Utilizing hearing assistive technology (HAT) to assess speech recognition: Comparison of word recognition scores obtained by hearing instrument users

The ability for individuals with hearing loss to accurately recognize correct versus incorrect verbal responses during traditional word recognition testing across four different listening conditions was assessed.
