Least-squares (LS) deconvolution of a series of overlapping cortical auditory evoked potentials: a simulation and experimental study
(Journal of Neural Engineering, 2014-08)
Objective: To evaluate the viability of disentangling a series of overlapping “cortical auditory evoked potentials” (CAEPs) elicited by different stimuli using least-squares (LS) deconvolution, and to assess the adaptation ...
NAL-NL2 empirical adjustments
(Trends Amplification, 2012)
NAL-NL1, the first procedure from the National Acoustic Laboratories (NAL) for prescribing non-linear gain, was a purely theoretically-derived formula aimed at maximizing speech intelligibility for any input level of speech ...
Identification of Conductive Hearing Loss Using Air Conduction Tests Alone: Reliability and Validity of an Automatic Test Battery
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins., 2014-01)
The primary objective of this study was to determine whether
a combination of automatically administered pure-tone audiometry and
a tone-in-noise detection task, both delivered via an air conduction (AC)
pathway, could ...
Impact of the presence of auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) on outcomes of children at three years of age
(2013)
Objective—To determine the influence of the presence of auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder
(ANSD) on speech, language, and psycho-social development of children at three years of age.
Deconvolution of overlapping cortical auditory evoked potentials recorded using short stimulus onset-asynchrony ranges
(Clinical Neurosphysiology, 2014)
The first aim of this study is to validate the theoretical framework of Least-Squares (LS) deconvolution on experimental data. The second is to investigate the waveform morphology of the cortical auditory evoked potential ...
Allowing for Asymmetric Distributions When Comparing Auditory Processing Test Percentage Scores with Normative Data
(Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2014)
Background: Raw percentage scores can be transformed to age-specific Z scores, despite the asymmetric
distribution of normative data using a process that is applicable to any percentage (or proportion)-
based result.
Purpose: ...
Effect of audibility on spatial release from speech-on-speech masking
(Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2015)
This study investigated to what extent spatial release from masking (SRM) deficits in hearingimpaired
adults may be related to reduced audibility of the test stimuli. Sixteen adults with sensorineural
hearing loss and ...
The Dichotic Digits difference Test (DDdT): Development, Normative Data and Test-Retest Reliability Studies
(2014)
Background: The dichotic digits test is one of the most widely used assessment tools for central auditory processing disorder (CAPD). However, questions remain concerning the impact of cognitive factors on test results.
Purpose: ...
Investigating the interaction between dichotic deficits and cognitive abilities using the Dichotic Digits difference Test (DDdT)
(2015-08)
Background: The Dichotic Digits difference Test (DDdT) was developed in order to
investigate the relationship between dichotic processing and cognitive abilities and, through
the use of differential test scores, to provide ...
Cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) in response to multi-tone (MT) stimuli in hearing-impaired adults.
(Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2015)
Abstract
Objective: To determine if one-octave multi-tone (MT) stimuli increase the amplitude of cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) in individuals with a hearing loss when compared to standard pure-tone (PT) ...
