Consequences of Early Conductive Hearing Loss on Long-term Binaural Processing
(2017)
Objectives: The aim of the study was to investigate the long-term effects of early conductive hearing loss on binaural processing in school-age children.
Design: One hundred and eighteen children participated in the study, ...
An automatic algorithm for blink-artifact suppression based on iterative template matching: Application to single channel recording of cortical auditory evoked potentials
(2017)
Artifact reduction in electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is usually
necessary to carry out data analysis appropriately. Despite the large amount of
denoising techniques available with a multichannel setup, there is a ...
The effect of nearby maskers on speech intelligibility in reverberant, multi-talker environments
(Journal of Acoustical Society of America, 2017-03)
The extent to which informational masking (IM) is involved in real-world listening is not well
understood. In the literature, IM effects of more than 8 dB are reported, but these experiments typically
used simplified ...
The Parsing Syllable Envelopes (ParSE) test for assessment of amplitude modulation discrimination skills in children: Development, normative data and test-retest reliability studies
(JAAA, 2017)
Background: Intensity peaks and valleys in the acoustic signal are salient cues to syllable structure, which is accepted to be a crucial early step in phonological processing. As such, the ability to detect low-rate ...
Factors influencing speech perception in noise for 5-yearold children using hearing aids or cochlear implants
(International Journal of Audiology, 2017)
Objective: We investigated the factors influencing speech perception in babble for 5-year-old
children with hearing loss who were using hearing aids (HAs) or cochlear implants (CIs).
Design: Speech reception thresholds ...
Hearing Aid fitting and developmental outcomes of children fit according to either the NAL or DSL prescription : fit-to-target, audibility, speech and language abilities
(International Journal of Audiology, 2017)
Objective: This study compared hearing aid (HA) fitting outcomes and developmental
outcomes of children with hearing loss at 5 years of age.
Design and study sample: HA settings of 232 children that were fit according ...
The Parents’ Perspective of the Early Diagnostic Period of their Child with Hearing Loss: Information and Support
(International Journal of Audiology, 2017)
Objective: This study aimed to explore the perspectives of caregivers regarding the information and support they received following diagnosis of their child’s hearing loss. Design: A mixed methods explanatory sequential ...
