Bilateral cochlear implant (BCI) users only have very limited spatial hearing abilities. Speech
coding strategies transmit interaural level differences (ILDs) but in a distorted manner …

The main objective of this study was to investigate the extent to which hearing impairment
influences the duration of sentence processing. An eye-tracking paradigm is introduced that …

Speech comprehension in adverse listening conditions can be effortful even when speech is
fully intelligible. Acoustical distortions typically make speech comprehension more effortful …

The tracking of eye gesture movements using wearable technologies can undoubtedly
improve quality of life for people with mobility and physical impairments by using spintronic …

In spite of the rapidity of everyday speech, older adults tend to keep up relatively well in day-
to-day listening. In laboratory settings older adults do not respond as quickly as younger …

Oral communication is a fundamental part of teaching and learning in classrooms. Correct
reception of the teacher's message is a necessary condition for good communication …

When listening to natural speech, our brain activity tracks the slow amplitude modulations of
speech, also called the speech envelope. Moreover, recent research has demonstrated that …

Detecting when one's own gaze has been followed is a critical component of joint attention,
but little is known about its development. To address this issue, we used …

Age-related hearing loss typically affects the hearing of high frequencies in older adults.
Such hearing loss influences the processing of spoken language, including higher-level …

Speech comprehension requires effort in demanding listening situations. Selective attention
may be required for focusing on a specific talker in a multi-talker environment, may enhance …
