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 ...
An examination of speech reception thresholds measured in a simulated reverberant cafeteria environment
(International Journal of Audiology, 2014)
There is increasing demand in the hearing research community for the creation of laboratory environments that better simulate challenging real-world listeneing envrionments.
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 ...
Outcomes of 3-Year-Old Children With Hearing Loss and Different Types of Additional Disabilities
(2013)
This research investigated the speech, language, and functional
auditory outcomes of 119 3-year-old children with hearing loss
and additional disabilities. Outcomes were evaluated using
direct assessment and caregiver ...
Intelligibility of Speech Produced by Children with hearing loss
(Communication Disorders, Deaf Studies & Hearing Aids, 2015)
This study aimed to 1) investigate the influence of nonlinear frequency
compression (NLFC) in hearing aids on intelligibility of speech produced by children
with hearing loss; and 2) examine whether clinicians’ or parents’ ...
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) ...
Detection rates of cortical auditory evoked potentials at different sensation levels in infants with sensory/ neural hearing loss and auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder
(Seminars in Hearing, 2015)
With the introduction of newborn hearing screening infants are being diagnosed with hearing loss during the first few months of life. For infants with a sensory/ neural hearing loss (SNHL) the audiogram can be estimated ...
