The effects of adding realism to a conventional speech-in-noise test
(2014)The speech reception threshold (SRT) is routinely used in research and in the clinic to assess people’s ability to understand speech in noise. The overall goal of this work was to determine whether introducing realistic ... -
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. ... -
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 ... -
Effects of peaks in hearing aid frequency response curves on comfortable listening levels of normal hearing subjects
(Australian Journal of Audiology, 1981) -
Effects of spectral smearing on performance of the spectral ripple and spectro-temporal 1 ripple tests
(The Hearing CRC, University of Melbourne, 2016) -
Efficacy of the LiSN & Learn auditory training software: randomized blinded controlled study
(Audiology Research, 2012)Children with a spatial processing disorder (SPD) require a more favorable signal-to-noise ratio in the classroom because they have difficulty perceiving sound source location cues. Previous research has shown that a novel ... -

Eliciting natural conversational Lombard speech in realistic acoustic environments
(2016)▶ Speech intelligibility tests, which are commonly used in the audiology clinic and in research, do not reflect what people experience outside the clinic. ▶ Speech intelligibility tests may be poor predictors of communication ... -
Empowering hearing aid users: it’s not the technology but what people do with technology

English language and language-free detection of spatial processing disorders in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children
(2020)Objective: The aim of this study was to compare speech reception thresholds in noise measured with the Listening in Spatialized Noise – Universal test (LiSN-U; which requires no English knowledge) with those measured from ... -

An equivalent fluid representation of a layered elastic seafloor for acoustic propagation modelling
(2017)Modelling range dependent sound propagation over layered elastic seafloors with high shear speeds has proved to be a difficult problem for many widely used under water acoustic sound propagation models. Recent research and ...
