Transient and sustained cortical activity elicited by connected speech of varying intelligibility
2012
BMC Neuroscience
The intervening exposure to undistorted versions of sentences rendered the initially unintelligible, distorted sentences intelligible, as evidenced by an increase from 30% to 80% in the proportion of sentences ...
In the time range of auditory P2m response (>200 ms), auditory cortex as well as regions anterior and posterior to this area generated a stronger response to sentences which were intelligible than unintelligible ...

The Impoverished Brain: Disparities in Maternal Education Affect the Neural Response to Sound
2013
Journal of Neuroscience
, but differed in their maternal education level, a correlate of socioeconomic status (SES). ...
By studying SES within a neuroscientific framework, we have the potential to expand our understanding of how experience molds the brain, in addition to informing intervention research aimed at closing ...
This, combined with greater exposure to unstructured auditory stimulation, as the result of increased noise exposure (Evans and Kantrowitz, 2002) , limits opportunities for high-quality learning experiences ...

Recognition of Rapid Speech by Blind and Sighted Older Adults
2011
Journal of Speech, Language and Hearing Research
Rather, frequent listening to speech at rapid rates, which was highly correlated with performance of the older blind adults, may be a useful technique to minimize age-related slowing in speech understanding ...
Purpose-The goal of this study was to determine if older blind participants recognize timecompressed speech better than older sighted participants. ...

Perception of Speech Modulation Cues by 6-Month-Old Infants
2013
Journal of Speech, Language and Hearing Research
Method: Several vocoded speech conditions were designed to: (i) degrade FM cues in 4 or 32 bands, or (ii) degrade AM in 32 bands. ...
Infants were familiarized to the vocoded stimuli for a period of either 1 or 2 min. Vocoded speech discrimination was assessed using the head-turn preference procedure. ...

Cochlear neuropathy and the coding of supra-threshold sound
2014
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience
Animal studies show that noise exposure and aging can cause a loss of a large percentage of auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) without any significant change in measured audiograms. ...
In humans with normal hearing thresholds (NHTs), paradigms that require listeners to make use of the detailed spectro-temporal structure of supra-threshold sound, such as selective attention and discrimination ...

The role of contrasting temporal amplitude patterns in the perception of speech
2003
Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
Despite a lack of traditional speech features, novel sentences restricted to a narrow spectral slit can retain nearly perfect intelligibility ͓R. M. Warren et al., Percept. ...
However, when a 1 3 -octave speech band was partitioned to create a contrasting pair of independently amplitude-modulated 1 6 -octave patterns, some intelligibility was restored ͑experiment 2͒. ...

Tone Language Speakers and Musicians Share Enhanced Perceptual and Cognitive Abilities for Musical Pitch: Evidence for Bidirectionality between the Domains of Language and Music
2013
PLoS ONE

Here, using a crosssectional design, we compared the performance of musicians to that of tone-language (Cantonese) speakers on tasks of auditory pitch acuity, music perception, and general cognitive ability ...
The task assesses short-term memory of pitch sequences, and is a musical counterpart to the classic digit span test commonly employed to assess verbal working memory (e.g., [62] ). ...

Severe Multisensory Speech Integration Deficits in High-Functioning School-Aged Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Their Resolution During Early Adolescence
2013
Cerebral Cortex
Under noisy listening conditions, visualizing a speaker's articulations substantially improves speech intelligibility. ...
We consider the observation that the multisensory speech system recovers substantially in adolescence as an indication that it is likely amenable to intervention during earlier childhood, with potentially ...

Auditory Working Memory: A Comparison Study in Adults with Normal Hearing and Mild to Moderate Hearing Loss
2018
Global Journal of Otolaryngology
Working memory has a crucial role in one's effective communication, especially for the speech and language comprehension. ...
The purpose of this study is to compare the auditory working memory capacity (AWMC) in normal hearing adults and adults with mild to moderate hearing loss using digit span tasks from WAIS-IV. ...
It is observed as a reduction in the speech recognition ability of the under stimulated ear. ...

Processing Complex Sounds Passing through the Rostral Brainstem: The New Early Filter Model
2016
Frontiers in Neuroscience
Those corticofugal connections constrain the processing of complex sounds such as speech at the level of the brainstem. ...
Turning to the effects of a visually presented sensory or memory load on auditory processes, there is a load-dependent reduction of that processing, as manifest in the auditory brainstem responses (ABR ...
Increasing sensory load by degrading to-be-remembered serial recall visual digit items (A) with Gaussian noise (B) reduces the deviant effect (C), whereby an occasional change-in-voice of to-be-ignored ...
