目的探讨人工耳蜗植入儿童对主语和宾语who和which问题的理解能力。方法采用生长曲线分析法（Growth Curve Analysis，GCA），比较16例人工耳蜗植入儿童和31例正常听力儿童对相应主语或宾语名词的注视和注视模式（7岁;0-12岁;0岁）在有和没有添加形容词以增加长度的wh-问题上。离线准确性也compared.ResultsFindings表明，儿童与典型的听力表现出更多的固定在所有条件下的目标名词，支持更高的理解准确性。两组儿童在宾语问句和无附加长度问句中都表现出对目标名词更多的注视。各组之间的眼睛运动模式显着不同，这表明在固定目标名词之前，眼睛凝视阵列的模式不同。CI儿童表现出更少的固定，固定速度较慢，和凝视模式的差异，这可能意味着存在的处理限制。错误分析还表明，CI儿童经常固定在一个类似于目标noun.ConclusionsResults的图片表明CI儿童理解问题的速度比他们的听力同龄人，这可能与工作记忆的局限性。
ObjectivesThe present study investigated the comprehension of subject and objectwhoandwhichquestions in children with cochlear implants (CI).MethodsGrowth Curve Analysis (GCA) was used to compare eye gaze fixations and gaze patterns to the appropriate subject or object nouns within a four-picture array between 16 children with CI and 31 children with typical hearing (aged 7;0-12;0) on wh-questions with and without added adjectives to increase length. Offline accuracy was also compared.ResultsFindings indicated children with typical hearing exhibited more fixations to the target noun across all conditions, supporting higher comprehension accuracy. Both groups of children demonstrated more fixations to the target noun in object questions and questions without added length. Patterns of eye movement were significantly different between groups, suggesting different patterns of eye gaze across the array before fixation on the target noun. Children with CI exhibited fewer fixations, slower speed to fixation, and differences in gaze patterns that may imply the presence of processing limitations. Error analyses also suggested that children with CI frequently fixated on a picture similar to the target noun.ConclusionsResults indicate children with CI comprehend questions more slowly than their hearing peers, which may be related to limitations in working memory.
