Auditory cortical plasticity in learning to discriminate modulation rate

V van Wassenhove, SS Nagarajan - Journal of Neuroscience, 2007 - Soc Neuroscience
The discrimination of temporal information in acoustic inputs is a crucial aspect of auditory
perception, yet very few studies have focused on auditory perceptual learning of timing …

Perceptual learning evidence for tuning to spectrotemporal modulation in the human auditory system

AT Sabin, DA Eddins, BA Wright - Journal of Neuroscience, 2012 - Soc Neuroscience
Natural sounds are characterized by complex patterns of sound intensity distributed across
both frequency (spectral modulation) and time (temporal modulation). Perception of these …

Modulation of auditory evoked responses to spectral and temporal changes by behavioral discrimination training

R Draganova, A Wollbrink, M Schulz, H Okamoto… - BMC neuroscience, 2009 - Springer

musicians. An increased neocortical activity during auditory oddball stimulation was …

Learning strategy determines auditory cortical plasticity

KM Berlau, NM Weinberger - Neurobiology of learning and memory, 2008 - Elsevier
Learning modifies the primary auditory cortex (A1) to emphasize the processing and
representation of behaviorally relevant sounds. However, the factors that determine cortical …

Rapid spectrotemporal plasticity in primary auditory cortex during behavior

P Yin, JB Fritz, SA Shamma - Journal of Neuroscience, 2014 - Soc Neuroscience
Complex natural and environmental sounds, such as speech and music, convey information
along both spectral and temporal dimensions. The cortical representation of such stimuli …

Temporal specificity of perceptual learning in an auditory discrimination task

UR Karmarkar, DV Buonomano - Learning & Memory, 2003 - learnmem.cshlp.org
Although temporal processing is used in a wide range of sensory and motor tasks, there is
little evidence as to whether a single centralized clock or a distributed system underlies …

Sensory input directs spatial and temporal plasticity in primary auditory cortex

MP Kilgard, PK Pandya, J Vazquez… - Journal of …, 2001 - journals.physiology.org
The cortical representation of the sensory environment is continuously modified by

Subcortical plasticity following perceptual learning in a pitch discrimination task

S Carcagno, CJ Plack - Journal of the Association for Research in …, 2011 - Springer
Practice can lead to dramatic improvements in the discrimination of auditory stimuli. In this
