Present study aimed to develop a questionnaire related to the self-efficacy for the rehabilitation of children using Cochlear Implantation (CI) and to administer the questionnaire on parents of children with cochlear implantation. 100 parents of children with Cochlear Implantation between the years 2010- 2020 were selected randomly to be participants for the present study.A questionnaire on Self- Efficacy was developed. Questionnaire consists of 17 questions related to self-efficacy of therapy and Goal related Strategies, Listening, language and Speech Development and also Parental Involvement in rehabilitation, family and emotional support, device maintenance and follow up, At school engagement. Responses were recorded on three-point rating scale as (2= Yes, 1=sometimes,No=1). In addition, there were 3 open ended questions. This questionnaire was administered on 100 parents of children with CI. Total scores under each domain were calculated. Responses of open-ended question were listed. It was found that majority (more than 90%) of parents were aware of the therapy goals given to their children and also able to join the therapy session. Most (more than 90%)of the parents reported an improvement in the child's auditory skills post rehabilitation. 80% of parents were able to bring their children for therapy consistently, other parents felt the distance and financial affordability was a main barrier to bring the child consistently for therapy. 27 parents have reported a regression in the child due to the Covid lockdown. Though most of the parents reported to be satisfied with their child's progress post rehabilitation, other concerns such as inability to spend adequate time and inability for the children to learn via tele-mode were highlighted. These concerns should be carefully considered while providing rehabilitation for the child with CI.

Electrically evoked mismatch negativity from speech stimuli as an objective measure of cochlear implant performance.
Front Neurosci

Introduction: Cochlear implant (CI) success is often assessed using subjective tests like word recognition scores (WRS). However, these tests are unsuitable for children, non-native speakers, and individuals with cognitive impairments. Mismatch negativity (MMN), an objective measure of cortical auditory processing, offers a promising alternative for evaluating speech perception.

Introduction: Significant variability in the language performance of children with cochlear implant (CI) is widely recognized in the literature, particularly concerning morphosyntactic (MS) skills. The perceptual limitations of the CI, which can lead to phonological difficulties, may be responsible for this increased vulnerability in grammatical abilities. In this context, the present study focuses on the morphophonemic processing of items distinguished by nasal and oral vowels in the French language - the feature of vowel nasality being known as challenging for the CI population.

Objective This study aims to develop predictive models for speech outcomes at 6, 12, and 24 months post-cochlear implantation in pre-lingual deaf children. Using longitudinal Category of Auditory Performance (CAP), Speech Intelligibility Rating (SIR), and Parents' Evaluation of Aural/Oral Performance of Children (PEACH) scores, it seeks to forecast cognitive and verbal development. The study addresses the gap in correlating auditory performance with cognitive milestones by integrating longitudinal auditory data with cognitive and verbal benchmarks to identify predictive relationships.
