12 Part IV: Speech Perception by Special Listeners 18 Speech Perception by Children: The Structural Refinement and Differentiation Model Prelude to the study of children’s speech perception Questioning the primacy of phonemic units The acquisition of phonemic segments Early lexical representations Perceptual learning I: Attention Perceptual learning II: Organization What we learn from children with sensory impairments The structural refinement and differentiation model Summary REFERENCES 19 Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, and Auditory‐Visual Integration: Three Phenomena in Search of Empirical Support Models of AV integration Comparing measures of AV benefit AV benefit across different stimuli Measuring auditory‐visual integration The role of individual and age differences in lip‐reading The conundrum of AV speech perception Clinical implications Summary and conclusions Acknowledgments REFERENCES 20 Some Neuromyths and Challenging Questions about Cochlear Implants Introduction What do CI users hear? What factors predict outcome after implantation? Information‐processing approach to individual differences Working memory: A core cognitive ability Neurocognitive impacts of pediatric cochlear implantation Cognitive hearing science and cognitive audiology Auditory and cognitive training Predicting long‐term outcomes following implantation Should all deaf children who use CIs be taught sign language?
