Opis

The current works of us enlightens the reader with pitch perception and its neural correlates in normal hearers and in individuals with cochlear implants. Perception of fundamental frequency remains as an important area in speech perception. With cochlear implant, not only that the individual process and perceive sound different from that of other hearing impaired, also they perceive different from normal hearers. Thus, this study probes the encoding of fundamental frequency in cochlear implants in comparison to normal hearers.
