Abstract:Speech production of children with cochlear implants (CIs) is generally characterized by low intelligibility and reduced phoneme accuracy. However, limited research investigated their speech production using acoustic measures. The current study examined voice onset time (VOT) for pharyngealized plosives [t,d], and spectral moments and noise duration for pharyngealized fricatives [s,ð] produced by Arabic speaking children with CIs. Productions from children with CIs were compared with both chronological age-mat… Show more
