简要总结
Adult recipients of cochlear implants (CI) generally loose interest in listening to music. This may be due to the rather limited spectral resolution of CI. However, child CI-recipients, if offered the opportunity, like to listen to music. They participate actively in musical acitivities, such as singing, dancing or playing an instrument. Thus, there seems to be a fundamental difference in the music perception of people who receive CI as child or as adult.
This study assesses music perception skills of child, teen and adult cochlear implant recipients in settings with simple tone sequences and in a more complex, melodious context.

结局指标
主要结局
Does the age at which a person receives a cochlear implant influence music perception skills?
时间窗: Test and retest are taken within 6 months
The test assesses wether cochlear implant carriers are able to hear the difference betweent two sequences of sounds, where in the second sequence on tone is different from the first sequence. If a difference is perceived, then the test assesses how big this difference has to be in order to be heard. The first and the second test are no more than six months apart; both times the same procedure is followed. The test is carried out with three age groups: 1. Children aged 3-10 years 2. Teenagers aged 11 - 14 years 3. Persons above 15 years
次要结局
- Do the results of the primary outcome measure depend on the tone sequence presented to the cochlear implant recipients?(Test and retest are no more than 6 months apart)
