内容简介:
Cochlear implants (CIs) help many children with severe hearing loss to restore hearing and gain oral speech communication ability. However, CI devices cannot transmit pitch information effectively, posing challenges for children with CIs to acquire Mandarin tone and intonation, which are critical to convey lexical and discourse meanings in daily speech communication. In this talk, I will present three studies demonstrating the challenges children with CIs face in their acquisition of Mandarin tone and intonation (specifically, contrastive focus). I will also show how these children adopt non-auditory cues (e.g., visual-articulatory cues) to compensate for their tonal perception, and illustrate the critical role of receiving CI devices early in producing target-like productions of tone and intonation.
