Abstract:Hypothesis
The behaviorally based programming with loudness balancing (LB) would result in better speech understanding, spectral–temporal resolution, and music perception scores, and there would be a relationship between these scores.
Background
Loudness imbalances at upper stimulation levels may cause sounds to be perceived as irregular, gravelly, or overly echoed and may negatively affect the listening performance of the cochlear implant (CI) user. LB… Show more
