Study Summary
This study examines how cochlear implant users understand and comprehend speech in realistic communication situations. Through six experiments measuring listening effort via pupillometry and discourse comprehension, we will investigate how linguistic context, cognitive demands, and processing time affect speech understanding in CI users, and in normal-hearing controls) to identify factors underlying communication resilience versus vulnerability and develop improved, ecologically valid assessment and rehabilitation strategies.
Primary Outcome
Participants' ability to recognize individual spoken words will be assessed using the Consonant-Nucleus-Consonant (CNC) word test. Outcome is based on the percent of key words correctly repeated. Higher score indicate better speech understanding.
