Attend to This: The Relationship between Auditory Processing Disorders and Attention Deficits
(2014)
Background: Children clinically diagnosed with auditory processing disorders (APDs) are often
described as easily distracted and inattentive, leading some researchers to propose that APDs might
be a consequence of ...
The effects of noise exposure and musical training on suprathreshold auditory processing
(Hearing Research, 2017-08)
Recent animal research has shown that exposure to single episodes of intense noise causes cochlear synaptopathy without affecting hearing thresholds. It has been suggested that the same may occur in humans. If so, it is ...
Delving into ‘hidden hearing loss’: Results from a large-scale behavioural investigation
(2016)
Some adults report problems understanding speech in background noise yet their audiograms are clinically normal. Animal studies suggest this may result from noise-induced damage to synaptic connections between auditory ...
Cognitive and auditory factors underlying the ability to understand speech in noise: clinical implications for diagnosis and rehabilitation
(2017)
A proportion of listeners report problems understanding
speech in background noise yet their audiogram is
clinically normal. A growing body of research in the
cognitive hearing science field suggests that both hearing
and ...
Effects of lifetime noise exposure on the middle-age human auditory brainstem response, tinnitus and speech-in-noise intelligibility
(2018)
Recent animal studies have shown that the synapses between inner hair cells and the dendrites
of the spiral ganglion cells they innervate are the elements in the cochlea most vulnerable to
excessive noise exposure. ...
