Predictor of auditory performance in mandarin chinese children with cochlear implants.

Objective: The objectives of this investigation were to analyze auditory performance among Mandarin-speaking school-aged children with cochlear implants from their parents' perspective and to derive predictive factors of the performance.

Study Design: Parental perspective survey of cochlear implant outcome was developed, and factor analysis of auditory performance was performed by analysis of variance. Categorical regression and Pratt measure of relative importance were approached to derive predictive factors of the performance.
