Careful – they can’t hear you
(National Centre for Farmer Health, 2013) -
Cognitive and auditory factors underlying the ability to understand speech in noise: clinical implications for diagnosis and rehabilitation
(2017)A proportion of listeners report problems understanding speech in background noise yet their audiogram is clinically normal. A growing body of research in the cognitive hearing science field suggests that both hearing and ... -
Connecting evidence and reducing the effect of occupational hearing loss
(National Health and Medicine Research Council, 2015) -
Delving into ‘hidden hearing loss’: Results from a large-scale behavioural investigation
(2016)Some adults report problems understanding speech in background noise yet their audiograms are clinically normal. Animal studies suggest this may result from noise-induced damage to synaptic connections between auditory ... -
Development and evaluation of a test for the assessment of syllabic parsing ability in children
(2016)The Parsing Syllable Envelopes test (ParSE) was developed to investigate whether some children have a deficit in their ability to detect syllable boundaries. -
Do new hearing aid users prefer less low- frequency, high-frequency, or overall gain than experienced users?
(2006)There seems to be a widespread belief among clinicians that new hearing aid users prefer less gain than experienced hearing aid users, and therefore that new users will acclimatize to more gain over time. This belief is ... -
Does musical training protect noise-exposed musicians from the consequences of ‘hidden hearing loss’?
(2016)"Hidden hearing loss": noise-induced cochlear synaptopathy involving the selective loss of high-threshold auditory nerve fibres without affecting auditory thresholds, but resulting in perceptual deficits such as difficulty ... -
A dual-task paradigm sensitive to listening effort in a realistic scenario
(43 rd ARO Annual Midwinter Meeting, January 25 ARO Annual Midwinter Meeting, January 25 ARO Annual Midwinter Meeting,, 2020) -
The effects of adding realism to a conventional speech-in-noise test
(2014)The speech reception threshold (SRT) is routinely used in research and in the clinic to assess people’s ability to understand speech in noise. The overall goal of this work was to determine whether introducing realistic ...
