简要总结
The ability to encode the speech signal is determined by ascending and descending auditory processing. Difficulties in processing these speech signals are well described at the behavioral level in a specific language disorder. However, little is known about the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. The assumption is that we should observe a degradation of the signal provided by the ear in the deaf subject while in case of specific language impairment it would be a phonemic disorder (possibly linked to a processing disorder auditory). The two population groups should therefore have different abnormalities of their central auditory process - which could be modified by the target remediation for each group.

结局指标
主要结局
Change from Baseline speech auditory brainstem and late responses (composite and objective measure) in response to syllables (behavioral measure)
时间窗: Arms 2 and 3: Baseline and 5 weeks / Arms 5 and 6: Baseline and 6 months / Arms 1 and 4: Baseline
Spectro-temporal analysis of speech auditory brainstem and late responses : The speech brainstem and cortical responses are simultaneously obtained in response of different selected syllables from a continuum (selected by using a phonemic identification test) which is presented throughout a behavioral categorical procedure
次要结局
- Change from Baseline medial olivocochlear system (MOCS) functioning measured using the contralateral suppressive effect of transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (composite measure)(Arms 2 and 3: Baseline and 5 weeks / Arms 5 and 6: Baseline and 6 months / Arms 1 and 4: Baseline)
- Change from Baseline speech-noise listening skills measured using logatomes tests (composite measure)(Arms 2 and 3: Baseline and 5 weeks / Arms 5 and 6: Baseline and 6 months / Arms 1 and 4: Baseline)
- Change from Baseline dichotic skills measured using central auditory processing tests (composite measure)(Arms 2 and 3: Baseline and 5 weeks / Arms 5 and 6: Baseline and 6 months / Arms 1 and 4: Baseline)
