Erratum: Binaural advantages in users of bimodal and bilateral cochlear implant devices [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 135, EL47–EL53 (2014)]

Abstract

PACS number(s): 43.71.Ky [ADP] The authors incorrectly reported that the order of the testing conditions was randomized. Instead, testing was grouped by listening condition to facilitate the procedure. Testing for binaural conditions preceded testing for monaural conditions. Thus, any potential order effects involving learning processes are not expected to have inflated the binaural advantages reported for either group. Table II reporting SRTs for bilateral and bimodal listeners also contained errors as published. The corrected table follows.The corrected average head-shadow and squelch effects for bilateral listeners are HS ¼ 9.2 dB and SQ ¼ À0.9 dB. The corrected binaural squelch effect for bimodal listeners is SQ ¼ 4.1 dB. The significance of the contribution of each binaural effect to each group and the conclusions drawn from the statistical analyses were not affected.
