The publisher regrets the omission of the y-axis labels in Figs. [1–3], [5], [7], and [8] of the above mentioned article. The corrected figures are reproduced here.

Figure 1 The difference in left and right ear scores for consonant/nucleus/consonant (CNC) word recognition in quiet (n = 82).

Figure 2 The magnitude of diotic summation for consonant/nucleus/consonant (CNC) words (n = 82).

Figure 3 Bilateral benefit for consonant/nucleus/consonant (CNC) words as a function of the absolute difference in left and right ear scores (n = 82).

Figure 5 The magnitude of the head shadow effect for City University of New York (CUNY) sentences in noise. Adapted with permission from Buss E, Pillsbury H, Buchman C, et al. Multicenter U.S. bilateral MED-EL cochlear implantation study: speech perception over the first year of use. Ear Hear 2008;29(1):20–32.

Figure 7 Squelch for City University of New York (CUNY) sentences in noise. Adapted with permission from Buss E, Pillsbury H, Buchman C, et al. Multicenter U.S. bilateral MED-EL cochlear implantation study: speech perception over the first year of use. Ear Hear 2008;29(1):20–32.

Figure 8 Adjusted constant error scores for normal-hearing subjects and subjects fit with bilateral cochlear implants. Black bars indicate performance when the signal was noise, and light gray bars indicate performance when the signal was speech. Adapted with permission from Grantham D, Ashmead D, Ricketts T, Labadie R, Haynes D. Horizontal-plane localization of noise and speech signals by postlingually deafened adults fitted with bilateral cochlear implants. Ear Hear 2007;28(4):524–541.
