    Journal of psychological science Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, 2007
    We compiled the long-term course of the cochlear implant wearing deaf child who had autism and examined a future problem and the role of the speech therapist. 1. The language / the cognitive neuropsychological ability of the deaf child who had autism was delayed at a 5-6 years old level. 2. Her ability for hearing and emotion were improved by having worn artificial cochlea at 11 years old. 3. It is suggestion that even a deaf child who had autism wearing artificial cochlea early deaf problem is reduced. 4. We thought that we required the upbringing of the speech therapist who could do guidance in consideration of autism and both deaf problems., Health Sciences University of Hokkaido

    Journal of psychological science Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, 2007
    We examined a point to keep in mind of the guidance and the role of the speech therapist about the progressive nerve deafness children who varied in the discovery time and the wearing time of the cochlear implant. 1. We manage the periodical hearing ability and we can add it and an aural decrease and must perform cochlear implant wearing in the guidance of children with progressive nerve deafness in spite of being a thought. 2. There was the need that made preoperatively age-appropriate spoken language ability acquired not to be troubled even if wearing of the cochlear implant was proper time of the learning after (6 years old) in the deaf children due to the progressive nerve deafness. 3. We predicted a prognosis when we detected hearing loss and guidance specialized in a language was necessary and thought that we required continuation of the training after an operation. 4. The role of the speech therapist in the medical institution which the cooperation of the associated institution was important and lasted for a life, and could perform support was considered so that the guidance for children with progressive nerve deafness was conducted adequately., Health Sciences University of Hokkaido

    Journal of psychological science Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, 2007
    The following things were found from course for the long term of a deaf child who had the Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD)(case A) and a singularity deaf child (case B) that they wore cochlea implant(CI) early (2 years old), and was given systematic language guidance. 1. As for a CI wearing effect having appeared, as for case B, case A was operation two years later operation one year later. 2. The language / the cognitive many ability did not settle as compared with case B, and case A showed a problem in the low rank item. 3. Degree of the ADHD reduced case A from severeness after CI wearing slightly in two years, but the problem of the ability for attention concentration remained at the attendance at school. 4. The establishment of an effective program in consideration of the effect that attention concentration gave in verbal learning was need., Health Sciences University of Hokkaido

    KAWASAKI Mika; MORI Toshiko; MORI Naoe; KURODA Seiko; FUJIMOTO Masaaki
    Journal of psychological science Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, 2007
    As a result of we compared it in the case that we taught it to by the auditoryverbal training method (AC:A group) when we used the total communication method (TC:Bgroup) and taught many ability of a language / the recognition neuropsychology of the different native deaf children of the guidance method that wore cochlea implant(CI), and having examined it, next was found. 1. The A group which we taught it to by the AT method as compared with the B group which we taught it to by the TC method had better overall results. 2. It was language-related intelligence and vocabulary understanding and articulation ability that a clear difference was found in A group and B group. 3. It was thought that the plastic high time of the brain required that we taught it to that conducting hearing practical use enough, a method to teach it to was considered., Health Sciences University of Hokkaido

    Journal of psychological science Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, 2007
    It was deaf, and we examined a point to keep in mind of the cochlear implant wearing effect of the cochlear implant wearing deaf child who had the minor developmental disease derived from low weight birth and the preschool guidance and, as a result, suggested the following things. 1. The low birth weight deaf child did near language development to a premature baby of normal hearing and deaf singularity children by having worn cochlea at 3's. 2. The cochlear implant wearing effect for the low birth weight history deaf child to 3's was high. 3. It was thought that it was necessary to get a learning condition ready after it extracted an individual problem early, and having predicted a prognosis., Health Sciences University of Hokkaido

    KAWASAKI Mika; MORI Toshiko; MORI Naoe; KURODA Seiko; FUJIMOTO Masaaki
    Journal of psychological science Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, 2006
    We were followed in the course of language ability and neuro-psychological cognition in a deaf child with a cochlear implant since 6 years of age. As a result, we considered important points of wearing cochlear implant since 6 years of age. The checklists of Mori was effective for recuperation and preparation on a deaf child wearing cochlear implant since 6 years of age who is learning language ability. If conditions for learning language and speech by use of auditory training, cued speech and sign language etc. early, a deaf child with a cochlear implant since 6 years of age had good language ability and neuro-psychological cognition (except speech discrimination ability and articulation). The matter is very importance of a measure corresponding ,one by one., Health Sciences University of Hokkaido
  • Long-Term Prognosis of Deaf-Born Children Wearing Cochlear Implant : Effects of the Age of Started Wearing Cochlear Implant and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder on the Development of Speech-Language and Cognitive Neuropsychological Abilities

    Journal of psychological science Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, 2006
    In the Fujimoto otolaryngology clinic, audiologists have trained the 9 deaf-born children wearing cochlear implants for 3 years and 3 months on the average, mainly used 'auditoryverbal method'. And we followed and investigated their development of the abilities of speech,hearing, articulation, vocabulary, intelligence (measured by Tanaka-Binet test, and Wechsler scale), reading of the sentences, from the age of 30 months to 8 years and 6 months through the training. We classified them into 4 types; (group A)2 cases of deaf-single children started wearing cochlear implants in age of 2 on the average,(group B)3 cases of deaf children with ADHD started wearing cochlear implants in age of 2 and 1 month on the average, (group C)3 cases of deaf-single children started wearing cochlear implants in age of 6 on the average,(group D)1 case of deaf child with ADHD started wearing cochlear implants in age of 6. And we investigated the effect of the age of started wearing cochlear implant and ADHD on the development of speechlanguage and cognitive neuropsychological abilities. The results were as follows; 1) Group A could catch up with all abilities of their calendar ages in early time, almost 3 years, and also their development after that continued good level. 2) Secondly, group B also could show good improvement level in early age after group A.3) And the next improvement level was group C, and after that was group D.4) It suggested that wearing cochlear implant before 2 years and wearing cochlear implant for the deafchildren with ADHD could effect on the developmental improvement of the speechlanguage and cognitive neuropsychological abilities., Health Sciences University of Hokkaido

    Journal of psychological science Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, 2006
    We followed and investigated about the speech-language and cognitive-neuropsychological abilities of two cases, started wearing cochlear implant(CI in the followings) from different ages. And we compared and examined the effects of the age of started wearing CI on the development of them. The results were as follows; Case-A started wearing CI in age of 2, he could achieve the normal developmental level as his calendar age on speech-language and cognitive-neuropsychological abilities. Case-B started wearing CI in age of 6, it was remarkable he restarted in order of his recognition of vocabulary, verbal-intelligence, abilities of articulation, speech-hearing, for the lateness of started wearing the hearing aided devices. It was suggested that they could have the possibility of acquisition of speech-language abilities practically using their hearing, if we would have CI worn on them before age of 3., Health Sciences University of Hokkaido

    Journal of psychological science Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, 2006
    We researched the developmental problems on a case of deaf child with autism, and compared his development with a case of deaf-single child. We followed the cases through the training in our clinic since age of 3 to the age of 6, and assessed them by the developmental test of Enjhoji, and Tanaka-Binet intelligence Scale, and we also assessed them by WISC-III for reference at finally. In the case-B; the deaf-single child, he could catch up with the normal level on all developmental abilities assessed by these tests. In the case-A; the deaf child with autism, it was remarkable that the retardation of the abilities of transferable-movement, the emotional development, the verbal-intelligence. It was suggested that such retardations of case-A were mainly caused by the autism, in spite of he had started wearing hearing-aids from age of 1., Health Sciences University of Hokkaido

    Journal of psychological science Health Sciences University of Hokkaido, 2006
    We compared with 7 cases of deaf children in born, and examined for the effects of the ages of started wearing hearing aided devices on acquisition of articulation, and the results were as followings: They were good for the ratios of correct responses of articulations in group-A(early cochlear implants) and C(successful hearing aid users) ,and they were almost as same as normal children on their prosodic-features of speaking sentences. They were not good for the ratios of correct responses of articulation in group-B(late wearing cochlear implants) and D(less successful hearing aid users),and they were monotonous and flat on their prosodic-features of speaking sentences. It was suggested that we should started having the hearing aided devices worn on them and started the auditory training before the age of 3 at least, for they could recognize and discriminate between the original sounds and they could improve the ability of articulation., Health Sciences University of Hokkaido
