Part 3 accepted

9/22/2022

 
Picture
Part 3 of a series of experiments about listeners' evaluations of cochlear implant speech has been accepted to the Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education. Titled "Employers’ speech-based first impressions of cochlear implant users," hiring managers rated talkers with typical hearing most positively, followed by highly-intelligible CI users and then less-intelligible CI users -- the same patterns as in Parts 1 and 2 (both 2018), which used college students listeners. Listeners didn't know the talkers were deaf. This unconscious bias could have negative effects on deaf/hard-of-hearing employment opportunities.

DXDX at FOOLS

9/9/2022

 
This week, three students and I presented three posters about the Deaf Experience, Deaf Expression (DXDX) Project at the Friends of Oklahoma Language Studies meeting. I used last year's ASHA poster to introduce the project, Bailey Smith and Mary Vang practiced their presentation for the upcoming OSLHA conference about student involvement in the project, and Tess Meyer practiced her OSLHA presentation about her thematic analysis. The project was well received, and people had great questions and ideas for further uses of the corpus. All three students did a great job presenting their work!
