In the article by Dorman et al. entitled “Cochlear Place of Stimulation Is One Determinant of Cochlear Implant Sound Quality” [Audiol Neurotol. 2019;24:264–269, DOI: 10.1159/000503217], a software error resulted in the digital readout for formant frequency shift to be larger than the actual shift. Other errors occurred during data entry. Figure 1 with corrected data is shown here. The first author is solely responsible for the errors. Our principal conclusion, that cochlear place of stimulation is one determinant of cochlear implant sound quality, remains unchanged.

Fig. 1.

a Changes in formant frequencies necessary to match CI sound quality in three test conditions for patients fit with MED EL (ME) and in four test conditions for patients fit with Advanced Bionics (AB) implants. b Changes in F0 necessary to match CI sound quality in the test conditions. Data points are offset on the x axis to enhance readability. E, electrode.
