¸ñÀû: The purpose of this study was to investigate music perception performance of adult CI (cochlear implant) recipients on multi-variables. ¹æ¹ý:Sixty-one adult patients with at least six months implant experiences participated in this study. Their mean age was 45.1 and each of them used various hearing modes, such as Unilateral CI, Bilateral CIs, Bimodal, Unilateral EAS, Bilateral EAS, Bimodal EAS. Pitch ranking test (PRT) and melodic contour identification (MCI) were utilized as a measurement at postoperative 6-month. All musical stimuli were provided in front of the each participant trough the speaker at average 75dB SPL. Music perception performance of the participants was analyzed on variables of hearing modes, device use, hearing loss types, age, and postoperative music training. °á°ú:The EAS users showed significantly high scores, compared to the other groups with different hearing modes. Prelingually deafened group and monaural hearing group presented the poorest performance. There was significant difference between adult and old age group, while young adult and adult group did not so. For the group with music training after surgery, they had relatively high scores than the group without music training. °á·Ð:Although each participant demonstrated different results according to individual hearing modes and demographics, binaural hearing and EAS users showed high performance in general. Particularly, high scores of EAS and Bimodal users presented the importance of residual hearing use in music perception. However, the number of participants in EAS, bilateral CIs, older age groups was relatively small which would affect the result. It is required to have enough participants in those groups and analysis with more various factors for further study. |
