This paper provides an overview of changes in the perception of sound that result from
cochlear damage. It starts with a brief introduction to the physiology of the cochlea …

The topic of compression has been discussed quite extensively in the last 20 years (eg,
Braida et al., 1982;,;;; and 2002;;;;; Verschuure et al., 1996;). However, the latest …

Now available in a sixth edition, An Introduction to the Psychology of Hearing is the leading
textbook in the field of auditory perception, also known as psychoacoustics. The textbooks …

Since the first edition was published in 1998, considerable advances have been made in the
fields of pitch perception and speech perception. In addition, there have been major …

The performance of 40 hearing-impaired adults with the GN ReSound digital BZ5 hearing
instrument was compared with performance with linear hearing aids with input compression …

Objective: To determine if (1) evoked potentials elicited by amplified speech sounds
(/si/and/∫ i/) can be recorded reliably in individuals,(2) amplification alters neural response …

Sensorineural hearing loss is accompanied by loudness recruitment, a steeper-than-normal
rise of perceived loudness with presentation level. To compensate for this abnormality …

People with sensorineural hearing impairment typically have more difficulty than normally
hearing people in understanding speech in the presence of background sounds. This paper …

intelligibility in a competing-speech taska) | The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the joint effects that wide dynamic
range compression (WDRC) release time (RT) and number of channels have on recognition …
