Evaluation of headphone effects on performance in the LiSN & Learn auditory training software
(ANU Undergraduate Research Journal, 2015)
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 abilty to utilise binaural cues to segregate sounds.
On the relationship between functional hearing and depression
(International Journal of Audiology, 2015-06)
Objective: To establish the effect of self-rated and measured functional hearing on depression, taking age and gender into account. Additionally, the study investigates if hearing aid usage mitigates the effect, and if ...
Noise with attitude: Influences on young people’s decisions to protect their hearing
(2013)
Objective: To investigate young people’s experiences and attitudes towards hearing health and their participation in noise reduction behaviours, to better understand how education and prevention messages may be better ...
Music to whose ears? The effect of social norms on young people’s risk perceptions of hearing damage resulting from their music listening behaviour
(2012)
Professional and community concerns about the potentially dangerous noise levels for common leisure activities has led to increased interest on providing hearing health information to participants. However, noise reduction ...
The Dichotic Digits difference Test (DDdT): Development, Normative Data and Retest Reliability Studies
(2015-08)
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 ...
An evaluation of the performance of two binaural beamformers in complex and dynamic multitalker environments
(International Journal of Audiology, 2015)
Objective: Binaural beamformers are super-directional hearing aids created by combining microphone outputs from each side of the head.
While they offer substantial improvements in SNR over conventional directional hearing ...
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 ...
The relationship between cortical auditory evoked potential (CAEP) detection and estimated audibility in infants with sensorineural hearing loss
(International Society of Audiology, 2012)
To determine the effectiveness of objective statistical detection in CAEP testing to evaluate audibility in young infants with a sensorineural hearing loss.
