    (Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2020-03-05) Salvato, Carolina De Campos [UNIFESP]; Chiari, Brasilia Maria [UNIFESP]; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3118172851522969; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2465568273406624; Universidade Federal de São Paulo
    Introduction: Hearing impairment (AD) can harm the subject in several contexts, which often generates negative feelings and difficulties in communication. To mitigate the commitments generated by AD, there are compensatory conducts, among them, the Cochlear Implant (CI). Although this device contributes to hearing improvement, many users still have several complaints of speech recognition in a noisy situation (competitive speech). Thus, factors other than audibility, can act in this recognition, among them the temporal ability. Objective: To verify if there is a correlation between the performance of temporal processing and the recognition of competitive and / or distorted speech in patients using Cochlear Implants. Method: Participants underwent the following assessments: anamnesis, free field audiometry with Cochlear Implant at 250 to 4000Hz sound frequencies, TPF - “Frequency Pattern Test”, TPD - “Duration Pattern Test”, SSI - Test of Sentencing Identification with Competitive Message (Synthetic Sentences Identification in Portuguese) and LSP - "List of Sentences in Portuguese" in the noise condition. The data were analyzed using the Pearson and Spearman coefficient, the Shapiro-Wilk test, the Mann-Whitney U test, the Student t test and two-dimensional scatter plots. In addition, a descriptive analysis of the data was performed using the SPSS Statistics software, version 25.0. Hypothesis: CI users with greater difficulty in temporal ability are those who have the worst performance in competitive speech. Results: There was a statistically significant relationship between the tests that assess temporal ability - SSI and TPF (appointment) - and the test that evaluates competitive speech recognition - LSP. Conclusion: CI users who performed well in the test with competitive speech in the noise condition (LSP) obtained equivalent results in the SSI tests (signal-to-noise ratio +10, 0, -10), and TPF - appointment, which assess the ability of deep figure and temporal ability, respectively.

    Processamento visual e auditivo em intérpretes e surdos usuários de libras
    (Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2019-02-28) Mello, Ricardo Oliveira [UNIFESP]; Pereira, Liliane Desgualdo [UNIFESP]; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0546134611213515; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4161182128397663; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)
    Objective. To establish the profile of Auditory and Visual Processing abilities of Interpreters of Brazilian Sign Language, of Deaf users of Brazilian Sign Language, and of normal hearing non users of Brazilian Sign Language and to compare the different profiles. Method. 90 individuals ranging in age from 18 to 50 years participated. There were 39 men and 51 women, all considered cognitively normal. They were divided into three groups: 30 deaf users of Brazilian Sign Language (DG), 30 translators and interpreters of Brazilian Sign Language (IG) and 30 individuals for Control group non users of Brazilian Sign Language (CG). Individuals with cognitive impairment were excluded by means of a Cognitive Screening Test. They all answered a Visual Perception Evaluation Scale (VPES) and a Sequential Memory Test. The IG was constituted of individuals who obtained at least 6 out of 10 points in the evaluation of competence in Brazilian Sign Language. The IG and CG were normal-hearing and underwent an Evaluation of the Central Auditory Processing: Duration Pattern Test and Frequency Pattern Test (DPT and FPT) and Auditory Behavior Scale (ABS). The DG completed a Sign Language Scale (SLS), which was developed for this study, and included questions about their day-to-day use od Sign Language. All the tests and evaluations devised for the DG group were translated and shown by video in Brazilian Sign Language in order to ensure the deaf individuals understood. SLS was composed of 12 questions and recorded in 14 videos. All the videos were reviewed by a Brazilian Sign Language (LIBRAS) interpreter from the UNIFESP. The performance in the VPES, in the ABS / SLS by category was different, with statistical significance, in each group CG, IG and DG. The pairs of categories with equivalence were figure- ground and constancy of form, and position in space and spatial relationship for CG and IG. This did not occur with the DG whose worst performance was figure-ground. In the ABS, the best performances were for listening, attention and learning for both CG and IG. In the SLS for DG, the perception of sign language and attention were better than learning and understanding. In the comparison between the groups by categories, the IG and the CG were similar and better than the DG in all the categories. Among the normal hearing groups, the performance in the humming DPT of the CG was better than that of the IG. The results for both DPT and FPT were similar in the CG and IG groups. In the sequential memory task, the performance of the DG and of the CG was similar and worse than that of the IG. Conclusion. The profile of the abilities of the deaf group was different from that of the normal-hearing CG and IG. It is worth highlighting better sequential memory abilities of sign language in the interpreter group, and a poor learning behavior (as shown in the SLS) in the DG. And, it is also worth stressing the relevance of the material specially developed for this study, the Sign Language Scale.
