This dataset was collected for the study titled "Remote Check with CI". It contains the remote check performance data of 50 participants and their speech recognition scores in quiet collected in the clinic.
Research aim:
The stability of remote testing in cochlear implant care was studied by testing the influence of time-of-day, listener fatigue, and motivation on the outcomes of the aided threshold test (ATT) and digit triplets test (DTT) in cochlear implant (CI) recipients using self-tests at-home on a smartphone or tablet.
Design:
A single-center repeated measures cohort study design (n = 50 adult CI recipients). The ATT and DTT were tested at-home ten times, with nine of these sessions planned within a period of eight days. Outcomes were modeled as a function of time-of-day, momentary motivation, listeners’ task-related fatigue, and chronotype (i.e., someone’s preference for morning or evening due to the sleep-wake cycle) using linear mixed models. Additional factors included aided monosyllabic word recognition in quiet, daily-life fatigue, age, and CI experience.
