Perceptual Consequences of “Hidden” Hearing Loss [PDF]
Dramatic results from recent animal experiments show that noise exposure can cause a selective loss of high-threshold auditory nerve fibers without affecting absolute sensitivity permanently.

Auditory and cognitive performance in elderly musicians and nonmusicians. [PDF]
Musicians represent a model for examining brain and behavioral plasticity in terms of cognitive and auditory profile, but few studies have investigated whether elderly musicians have better auditory and cognitive abilities than nonmusicians.

The psychophysics of absolute threshold and signal duration: a probabilistic approach. [PDF]
The absolute threshold for a tone depends on its duration; longer tones have lower thresholds. This effect has traditionally been explained in terms of ?temporal integration? involving the summation of energy or perceptual information over time.

The effects of industrial noise of higher spectrum on the workers’ auditory perception abilities [PDF]
Background/Aim. Results of previous studies gave support to the idea that machines in power plants produce noise of different levels of loudness and frequency, and that it could cause deterioration of the hearing ability of workers.

Treatment of sudden sensorineural hearing loss with hyperbaric oxygenation - our experience [PDF]
Background/Aim. Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is manifested by the loss of hearing for more than 30 dB at three consecutive frequencies in the timeframe of 72 h.

Magnitude of the contralateral efferent olivocochlear effect as a function of the frequency
Background: The activation of the medial olivocochlear reflex reduces the cochlear gain, which is manifested perceptually as decreased auditory sensitivity.

Auditory filter (AF) shape has traditionally been estimated with a combination of a notched-noise (NN) masking experiment and a power spectrum model (PSM) of masking.

Does Herpes Virus Reactivation Affect Prognosis in Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss? [PDF]
Objectives Several etiologies have been proposed to underlie idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL), including viral infection, vascular disturbance, and immune-mediated mechanisms. However, none of these mechanisms are conclusive.

Expert validation of prediction models for a clinical decision-support system in audiology
For supporting clinical decision-making in audiology, Common Audiological Functional Parameters (CAFPAs) were suggested as an interpretable intermediate representation of audiological information taken from various diagnostic sources within a clinical ...

The aim of this study was to assess feasibility of using electrophysiological auditory steady-state response (ASSR) masking for detecting dead regions (DRs). Fifteen normally hearing adults were tested using behavioral and electrophysiological tasks.
