An error analysis of the word recognition responses of cochlear implant users and listeners with normal hearing was conducted to determine the types of partial information used by these two populations when they identified spoken words under auditory-alone and audiovisual conditions. The results revealed that the two groups used different types of partial information in identifying spoken words under auditory-alone or audiovisual presentation. Different types of partial information were also used in identifying words with different lexical properties. In our study, however, there were no significant interactions with hearing status, indicating that cochlear implant users and listeners with normal hearing identify spoken words in a similar manner. The information available to users with cochlear implants preserves much of the partial information necessary for accurate spoken word recognition.
对人工耳蜗使用者和听力正常的聆听者的单词识别反应进行了错误分析，以确定这两类人群在仅听觉和视听条件下识别口语单词时所使用的部分信息类型。结果显示，两组在仅听觉或视听呈现方式下识别口语单词时使用了不同类型的部分信息。在识别具有不同词汇属性的单词时也使用了不同类型的部分信息。然而，在我们的研究中，未发现与听力状态的显著交互作用，这表明人工耳蜗使用者和听力正常的聆听者以相似的方式识别口语单词。人工耳蜗使用者可获得的信息保留了准确识别口语单词所需的大部分部分信息。
