Abstract
The results of the present study have confirmed that cochlear implantation enables auditory moment-to-moment control of pitch and loudness. The determination of jitter and shimmer in the vowel 'a' sample proved to be a good and early indicator of improved phonation control, even in young children. The deaf children who were implanted before the age of 4 years improved their voice control more quickly and to a greater extent than the children implanted after the age of 4 years.
