Musikerleben mit Kochleaimplantat: aktuelle neurowissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse

Abstract

Cochlear implants (CIs) can provide access to music despite profound hearing loss. Yet the quality of music experience with CIs remains heterogeneous. The perception of basic musical features and more complex processing steps can be investigated using EEG, for example by relying on the mismatch paradigm and semantic priming. Future research and rehabilitation should shift in focus to the individual musical experience of CI users under everyday listening conditions.
