Early Vocal Development in Tactually Aided Children With Severe-Profound Hearing Loss

This study compared early vocal productions of preschool children with severe-profound hearing loss recorded with and without the use of a tactual device (Tactaid II). Their vocalizations are described in a hierarchical manner utilizing a three-tiered analysis that identifies "speech-like"...

Description
Summary:This study compared early vocal productions of preschool children with severe-profound hearing loss recorded with and without the use of a tactual device (Tactaid II). Their vocalizations are described in a hierarchical manner utilizing a three-tiered analysis that identifies "speech-like" vocalizations and transcribes those vocalizations at the segmental and syllabic levels.
