Prevalence and Remediation of Spatial Processing Disorder (SPD) in Indigenous Children in Regional Australia
(International Journal of Audiology, 2014)
This study aimed to determine the prevalence of spatial processing disorder
(SPD) in the Indigenous Australian population and the benefit of and logistical issues arising
from remediation of the disorder.
Design: ...
Comparison of two working memory test paradigms: Correlation with academic performance in school-aged children
(International Journal of School and Cognitive Psychology, 2014)
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between two different working memory task paradigms and academic achievement. Participants were 202 Australian primary-school children who were assessed on the ...
Objective cortical evaluation of infants wearing hearing aids
(American Academy of Audiology, 2014-07)
Aided cortical response, speech intelligibility, consonant perception and functional performance of young children using conventional amplification or nonlinear frequency compression
(Elsevier, 2014)
ABSTRACT
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare conventional processing with nonlinear
frequency compression (NLFC) in hearing aids for young children with bilateral hearing loss.
Methods: Sixty-four children ...
Evaluation of headphone effects on performance in LiSN & Learn auditory training software
(National Acoustic Laboratories, 2014)
Spatial processing is the ability to use binaural cues to separate and group sounds that are important for everyday listening. Spatial processing disorder (SPD) is the reduced ability to utilize binaural cues to segregate ...
Comments on “Factors influencing tests of auditory processing: A perspective on current issues and relevant concerns” by Tony Cacace and Dennis McFarland.
(2014)
Auditory processing is defined as a modality-specific activity, and hence an auditory processing disorder cannot be diagnosed unless it can be shown that any deficit in performance is limited to, or at least predominantly ...
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 ...
Providing earplugs to young adults at risk encourages protective behaviour in music venues
(Sage Publications, 2014-09)
For some young people, nightclubs and other music venues are a major source of noise exposure arising from a combination of very high noise levels; relatively long attendance duration; and frequent, sustained participation ...
The Effect of Functional Hearing Loss and Age on Long- and Short-term Visuospatial 1 Memory: Evidence from the UK Biobank Resource
(2014)
The UK Biobank offers cross-sectional epidemiological data collected on >500,000
individuals in the UK between 40 and 70 years of age. Using the UK Biobank data, the aim
of this study was to investigate the effects of ...
Estimating Hearing Thresholds in Hearing-Impaired Adults through Objective Detection of Cortical Auditory Evoked Potentials
(National Acoustic Laboratories, 2014)
Background: Hearing threshold estimation based on cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) has been applied for some decades. However, available research is scarce evaluating the accuracy of this technique with an ...
