| Summary, etc | Objectives: The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether the arithmetic achievement of children<br/>with cochlear implants (CI) was lower or comparable to that of their normal hearing peers and to identify<br/>predictors of arithmetic achievement in children with CI. In particular we related the arithmetic<br/>achievement of children with CI to nonverbal IQ, reading skills and hearing variables.<br/>Methods: 23 children with CI (onset of hearing loss in the<br/>first 24 months, cochlear implantation in the<br/>first 60 months of life, atleast 3 years of hearing experience with the<br/>first CI) and 23 normal hearing peers<br/>matched by age, gender, and social background participated in this case control study. All attended grades<br/>two to four in primary schools. To assess their arithmetic achievement, all children completed the<br/>“Arithmetic Operations” part of the “Heidelberger Rechentest” (HRT), a German arithmetic test. To assess<br/>reading skills and nonverbal intelligence as potential predictors of arithmetic achievement, all children<br/>completed the “Salzburger Lesetest” (SLS), a German reading screening, and the Culture Fair Intelligence<br/>Test (CFIT), a nonverbal intelligence test.<br/>Results: Children with CI did not differ significantly from hearing children in their arithmetic<br/>achievement. Correlation and regression analyses revealed that in children with CI, arithmetic<br/>achievement was significantly (positively) related to reading skills, but not to nonverbal IQ. Reading skills<br/>and nonverbal IQ were not related to each other. In normal hearing children, arithmetic achievement was<br/>significantly (positively) related to nonverbal IQ, but not to reading skills. Reading skills and nonverbal IQ<br/>were positively correlated. Hearing variables were not related to arithmetic achievement.<br/>Conclusions: Children with CI do not show lower performance in non-verbal arithmetic tasks, compared<br/>to normal hearing peers. |
