Regions in the cochlea with no (or very few) functioning inner hair cells and/or neurons are
called “dead regions”. This paper reviews the anatomical, physiological, and psychophysical …

Objective: Short-term noise exposure that induces transient changes in thresholds has
induced permanent cochlear synaptopathy in multiple species. Here, the literature was …

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 Sense of Hearing is a highly accessible introduction to auditory perception, addressing
the fundamental aspects of hearing. This fourth edition has been revised to include up-to …

This study evaluated prototype multichannel nonlinear frequency compression (NFC) signal
processing on listeners with high-frequency hearing loss. This signal processor applies NFC …

Speech reception thresholds (SRTs) were measured with a competing talker background for
signals processed to contain variable amounts of temporal fine structure (TFS) information …

The book is concerned with changes in the perception of sound that are associated with
hearing loss and aging. Hearing loss affects about 7% of the population in developed …

Objectives: The aim of this study is to provide developmental standards on a variety of
temporal, spectral, and binaural psychoacoustic (auditory processing [AP]) tests in typically …

A hearing loss leads to problems with speech perception; this is exacerbated when
competing noise is present. The speech signal is recognized by the cognitive system of the …

O bjective: The aims of the current n200 study were to assess the structural relations
between three classes of test variables (ie HEARING, COGNITION and aided speech-in …
