Comparative analysis of story-grammar development: a cross-sectional study of Tamil-speaking child cochlear implant users and hearing peers in Tamil Nadu, India.

The findings suggest that children with normal hearing exhibit a more proficient understanding and utilisation of story structure in their story-telling than children with HI. This study highlights the importance of narrative analysis in language assessment, particularly for children with HI. Tailored interventions incorporating appropriate language stimulation techniques are needed to enhance children's narrative skills with HI. Further research in this area is warranted.
