Auditory Perception [PDF]

open access: bronzeBMJ, 1973
Auditory perceptual tasks involving the discrimination of fine differences in frequency, duration, or rhythmic pattern were given to a group of sixth form schoolboys. The results indicate that there is a wide range of auditory skills for different individuals, even within a relatively homogeneous group.

Distortions of Subjective Time Perception Within and Across Senses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: The ability to estimate the passage of time is of fundamental importance for perceptual and cognitive processes. One experience of time is the perception of duration, which is not isomorphic to physical duration and can be distorted by a ...

Sensitivity to haptic sound-localisation cues

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Hearing aid and cochlear implant (CI) users often struggle to locate and segregate sounds. The dominant sound-localisation cues are time and intensity differences across the ears.

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.

Relationships Between Health-Related Quality of Life and Speech Perception in Bimodal and Bilateral Cochlear Implant Users

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
PurposePrevious studies examining the relationship between health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and speech perception ability in cochlear implant (CI) users have yielded variable results, due to a range of factors, such as a variety of different HRQoL ...

Neural Mechanisms of Selective Auditory Attention in Rats (Dissertation) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
How does attention modulate sensory representations? In order to probe the underlying neural mechanisms, we established a simple rodent model of modality-specific attention.

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

Musical experience strengthens the neural representation of sounds important for communication in middle-aged adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2012
Older adults frequently complain that while they can hear a person talking, they cannot understand what is being said; this difficulty is exacerbated by background noise. Peripheral hearing loss cannot fully account for this age-related decline in speech-

Mesoscopic landscape of cortical functions revealed by through-skull wide-field optical imaging in marmoset monkeys

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The authors developed an optical imaging approach for mapping cortical functions through the intact skull in marmoset monkeys. Detailed functions and topographies were revealed in visual, auditory, and somatosensory cortices at mesoscopic scales.

Relationships between human auditory cortical structure and function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The human auditory cortex comprises multiple areas, largely distributed across the supratemporal plane, but the precise number and configuration of auditory areas and their functional significance have not yet been clearly established.
