  11. Weaknesses • So much missing data • Children ‘dropped out’ and ‘dropped in’ • Performance testing limited on simultaneous group due to young age • Performance testing skewed by results only being obtained if child could do the test • 3 year interval only introduced in final year, so limited data • Longitudinal study in children – children get older each year!

  12. Strengths • This is the population not a sample! • Unique and real picture of what children with bilateral CI can do • Cases not biased • Great example of collaborative work throughout UK
