Differences in language outcomes after cochlear implantation in children: Exploring the impact of auditory verbal therapy duration (0, 1, or 3 years)
This study underscores the critical importance of early and extended AVT in facilitating optimal language development in children with cochlear implants. After five years, children who received 3 years of AVT continued to outperform those who received only 0 or 1 year of AVT. Longitudinal studies are needed to assess whether the effects of AVT on language and pragmatic skills persist or evolve over time.
