Temporal integration in the time domain of a few seconds was investigated with a subjective accentuation paradigm in 11 monochannel cochlear implant users, who showed auditory comprehension deficits. While listening to metronome beats generated at various frequencies, patients were asked to accentuate mentally every n-th beat and create an individual rhythmic pattern. The extent of temporal integration was defined as the duration of perceptual units consisting of subjectively grouped beats at particular metronome frequencies. The results indicate that there is reduced capacity for temporal integration in implant recipients, particularly for lower metronome frequencies, in comparison to normally hearing. These observations point to the coincidence of specific temporal processing disorders and deficits in auditory comprehension after cochlear implantation.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain).

D003054 Cochlear Implants Electronic hearing devices typically used for patients with normal outer and middle ear function, but defective inner ear function. In the COCHLEA, the hair cells (HAIR CELLS, VESTIBULAR) may be absent or damaged but there are residual nerve fibers. The device electrically stimulates the COCHLEAR NERVE to create sound sensation.
