This study's aim is the assessment of language development of children with Cochlea Implant (CI). It focusses on receptive and expressive language development as well as auditory memory skills.
Grimm's language development test (SETK 3-5) evaluates receptive, expressive language development and auditory memory. Data of 49 children who received their implant within their first 3 years of life were compared to the norms of hearing children at the age of 3.0-3.5 years. According to the age at implantation the cohort was subdivided in 3 groups: cochlear implantation within the first 12 months of life (group 1), during the 13th and 24th months of life (group 2) and after 25 or more months of life (group 3).
It was possible to collect complete data of all SETK 3-5 subtests in 63% of the participants. A homogeneous profile of all subtests indicates a balanced receptive and expressive language development. Thus reduces the gap between hearing/language age and chronological age. Receptive and expressive language and auditory memory milestones in children implanted within their first year of life are achieved earlier in comparison to later implanted children.
The Language Test for Children (SETK 3-5) is an appropriate test procedure to be used for language assessment of children who received a CI. It can be used from age 3 on to administer data on receptive and expressive language development and auditory memory.
本研究旨在评估人工耳蜗植入(CI)儿童的语言发展情况。重点关注接受性和表达性语言发展以及听觉记忆技能。
格林语言发展测试(SETK 3 - 5)评估接受性、表达性语言发展和听觉记忆。将49名在生命的前3年内接受植入的儿童的数据与3.0 - 3.5岁听力正常儿童的标准进行比较。根据植入年龄,该队列分为3组:出生后12个月内接受人工耳蜗植入(第1组)、出生后第13至24个月接受植入(第2组)以及出生后25个月或更晚接受植入(第3组)。
63%的参与者能够收集到SETK 3 - 5所有子测试的完整数据。所有子测试的均匀分布表明接受性和表达性语言发展平衡。因此缩小了听力/语言年龄与实际年龄之间的差距。与较晚接受植入的儿童相比,出生后第一年内接受植入的儿童在接受性和表达性语言以及听觉记忆方面的里程碑实现得更早。
儿童语言测试(SETK 3 - 5)是用于评估接受人工耳蜗植入儿童语言能力的合适测试方法。从3岁起即可使用该测试来获取有关接受性和表达性语言发展以及听觉记忆的数据。
