This course will discuss recent investigations on the perception and communication of vocal emotion in speech by child and adult listeners with cochlear implants. The effects of development due to age and hearing loss on vocal emotion recognition will be covered. Topics will include voice pitch perception with cochlear implants and with acoustic hearing, acoustic cues for vocal emotions, descriptions of our studies and results, and implications for patients with hearing loss, with or without cochlear implants.
