Abstract
Evidence is lacking on the impact of bilingualism on the speech skills of children with cochlear implants (CIs). This study described the speech production of children with CIs acquiring French and one or more additional spoken languages. Four groups of children aged 4-11 were included: bilinguals (n = 15) and monolinguals (n = 14) with CIs and bilinguals (n = 14) and monolinguals (n = 20) with typical hearing. Data were collected about the percentage of consonant correct (PCC) and vowel correct (PVC) produced in French and intelligibility in all languages they spoke. Bilingual and monolingual children with CIs had comparable speech accuracy in French, but the pattern differed, impacting PCC for bilinguals and PVC for monolinguals. Most children with CIs had accurate and intelligible speech in French, but few bilingual children with CIs were highly intelligible in their home language. Therefore, bilingualism did not impede the speech production outcomes of bilingual children with CIs in the language of the wider community.
关于双语对人工耳蜗植入(CI)儿童语言能力的影响,目前还缺乏相关证据。本研究描述了学习法语和一种或多种额外口语的人工耳蜗儿童的语言能力。研究对象包括四组 4-11 岁的儿童:带有 CI 的双语儿童(n = 15)和单语儿童(n = 14),以及具有典型听力的双语儿童(n = 14)和单语儿童(n = 20)。收集的数据包括辅音正确率(PCC)和元音正确率(PVC),以及他们所说的所有语言的可懂度。双语和单语 CI 儿童的法语语音准确度相当,但模式不同,对双语儿童的 PCC 和单语儿童的 PVC 都有影响。大多数有 CI 的儿童的法语语音准确、清晰,但很少有双语 CI 儿童的母语语音清晰度很高。因此,双语并不妨碍双语 CI 儿童用更广泛的社区语言进行语音表达。
