Auditory filter shapes in normal-hearing, noise-masked normal, and elderly listeners.
To dissociate the effects of age and hearing impairment on changes in frequency selectivity, auditory filter shapes were measured at 2 kHz in four groups of subjects: (1) normal-hearing young subjects; (2) normal-hearing elderly subjects; (3) elderly hearing-impaired listeners; and (4) young normal-hearing listeners with simulated hearing losses. Filter shapes were derived using a modified vers...
متن کاملEfficacy of Auditory Training in Elderly Subjects
Auditory training (AT) has been used for auditory rehabilitation in elderly individuals and is an effective tool for optimizing speech processing in this population. However, it is necessary to distinguish training-related improvements from placebo and test-retest effects. Thus, we investigated the efficacy of short-term AT [acoustically controlled auditory training (ACAT)] in elderly subjects ...
متن کاملAuditory filtering and the discrimination of spectral shapes by normal and hearing-impaired subjects.
A review of the literature suggests that many hearing-impaired patients suffer from sensory deficits in addition to the reduced audibility of speech signals. Poor frequency resolution, or abnormal spread of masking, is a consistently identified deficit in sensorineural hearing loss. Frequency resolution was measured in individual subjects using the input filter pattern paradigm, and the minimum...
متن کاملAuditory Plasticity: Vocal Output Shapes Auditory Cortex
Studies in humans and songbirds have revealed a close link between vocal output and hearing. Now experiments in marmosets have shown that self-generated vocalizations can modulate the activity of neurons in the auditory cortex and even remodel their response properties.
متن کاملComparison of auditory filter shapes obtained with notched-noise and noise-tone maskers.
The notched-noise method has been widely used to estimate the shape of the auditory filter. Results obtained using this method may be influenced by combination bands produced by the interaction of components within the upper band of noise in the notched-noise masker. To assess the possible effect of such combination bands, results were compared for two types of masker: A notched noise, as used ...
