Outline of Final Research Achievements

Communication skills and social life skills were evaluated using the social adaptive skills test in children with cochlear implants from preschool to upper grade elementary school. In addition, although the delay in skill acquisition was delayed before entering elementary school, it caught up in the lower grades of elementary school, and the delay was seen again in the upper grades of elementary school. In the upper grades of elementary school, when subdomains of social life skills and communication skills were examined, delays were observed in conversation and communication. It was suggested that in the higher grades, complex communication such as understanding jokes and sarcasm, and taking common sense words is required, which may cause difficulties. Difficulties in building interpersonal relationships in school age may hinder social independence, and the results suggest the need for continuous intervention for school age children with cochlear implants.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

人工内耳装用児が、自身の能力を十分に発揮するためには、能力を適用させるための実用的なスキルが不可欠である。検査室での言語力評価に留まらず、社会生活における実用的な言語スキル、社会生活スキル、対人関係スキルを評価し、くわえてそれらがどのように相互関連しながら発達していくかを解明することで、発達遅滞への予防的介入が可能になり、人工内耳装用児とその家族への支援に役立てられる。また、人工内耳装用児の実用的スキルを向上させることは、人工内耳装用児やその家族のさらなる社会参加につながり、社会全体にとっても有益である。
