Auditory and non-auditory effects of noise on health [PDF]

open access: yesThe Lancet, 2014
Noise is pervasive in everyday life and can cause both auditory and non-auditory health effects. Noise-induced hearing loss remains highly prevalent in occupational settings, and is increasingly caused by social noise exposure (eg, through personal music players).

Neurons along the auditory pathway exhibit a hierarchical organization of prediction error

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Perception can be explained by predictive coding, but it is unclear how this theory applies at the single-neuron level. Here, authors describe how auditory patterns are encoded and detected by single neurons along the auditory pathway, demonstrating that

The auditory cortex [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2007
Recognizing other people, animals or objects by the sound they make is something that most of us take for granted. In fact, this ability relies on a series of rich and complex processes that begin when sounds are transduced into electrical signals by the exquisitely sensitive hair cell receptors that lie inside the cochlea of the inner ear.

Auditory processing in individuals with auditory neuropathy [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioral and Brain Functions, 2005
Abstract Background Auditory neuropathy is a disorder characterized by no or severely impaired auditory brainstem responses in presence of normal otoacoustic emissions and/or cochlear microphonics. Speech perception abilities in these individuals are disproportionate to their hearing sensitivity and reported to be ...

Auditory Reserve and the Legacy of Auditory Experience [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2014
Musical training during childhood has been linked to more robust encoding of sound later in life. We take this as evidence for an auditory reserve: a mechanism by which individuals capitalize on earlier life experiences to promote auditory processing.

Auditory influences on non-auditory cortices [PDF]

open access: yesHearing Research, 2009
Although responses to auditory stimuli have been extensively examined in the well-known regions of auditory cortex, there are numerous reports of acoustic sensitivity in cortical areas that are dominated by other sensory modalities. Whether in 'polysensory' cortex or in visual or somatosensory regions, auditory responses in non-auditory cortex have ...

Occupational Noise: Auditory and Non-Auditory Consequences [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020
Occupational noise exposure accounts for approximately 16% of all disabling hearing losses, but the true value and societal costs may be grossly underestimated because current regulations only identify hearing impairments in the workplace if exposures result in audiometric threshold shifts within a limited frequency region.

Auditory Experiences in Game Transfer Phenomena: [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This study investigated gamers’ auditory experiences as after effects of playing. This was done by classifying, quantifying, and analysing 192 experiences from 155 gamers collected from online videogame forums. The gamers’ experiences were classified as:

Improving speech perception for hearing-impaired listeners using audio-to-tactile sensory substitution with multiple frequency channels

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Cochlear implants (CIs) have revolutionised treatment of hearing loss, but large populations globally cannot access them either because of disorders that prevent implantation or because they are expensive and require specialist surgery. Recent technology

The role of perceived source location in auditory stream segregation: separation affects sound organization, common fate does not [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The human auditory system is capable of grouping sounds originating from different sound sources into coherent auditory streams, a process termed auditory stream segregation. Several cues can influence auditory stream segregation, but the full set of cues
