The Cochlear Implant Quality of Life instruments are available in multiple languages. We have required collaborators to follow best practices for translating and cross-culturally adapting these instruments as described by Hall, et al. (PMID: 29161914). All versions of the CIQOL instruments available for download on our website have undergone this rigorous process and can be downloaded through the CIQOL instruments link. If researchers are interested in translating/adapting the instruments in additional languages, please contact ciqualityoflife@musc.edu. Our instruments are currently available in the following languages:
