[Absract]Objective To report emotional prosody recognition in children with different durations of dual mode electroacoustic stimulation in response to sentences with happy,neutral or sad tone.Methods Children(n=32,aged 4-6 years)aided by electroacoustic dual mode stimulation of different durations(1-4 years)were enrolled from 9/2022 to 12/2023 and grouped based on duration of aiding,i.e.1.5(4 cases),2(6 cases),2.5(6 cases),3(6 cases),3.5(4 cases)and 4 years(6 cases).Each child listened to 15 sentences,compiled by the Department of Rehabilitation science,East China Normal University,repeated in three different emotional prosodies of happiness,neutrality and sadness,and the emotional prosody recognition capability was compared among groups.Results The overall emotional prosody recogni-tion capability and recognition of each emotional prosody were not significant different among the groups(F=1.246,P＞0.05 and F=1.174,P＞0.05,respectively),with no correlation between affective prosody type and duration of aiding(F=0.980,P＞0.05).The rate of correct emotional prosody recognition showed statistically significant differences among the different groups of duration of aiding(F=4.106,P＜0.01).Conclusion The emotional prosodies recognition capabilities improves during the first 1 to 4 years of use of dual mode electroacoustic stimulation,with no difference in recognition of happiness,neutrality and sadness.It is important to emphasize emotional prosodies recognition training in this stage of auditory rehabilitation.
