Octave effect in auditory attention [PDF]
Significance The human auditory system can filter sounds to select specific information. For example, when attention is “drawn” toward a tone of 1,000 Hz, the ear becomes more sensitive to that tone than to other tones. Here, we report that attention is drawn not only toward one specific frequency, as previously was assumed, but to octave ...

How does the brain follow a sound that is mixed with others in a noisy environment? One possible strategy is to allocate attention to task-relevant time intervals. Prior work has linked auditory selective attention to alignment of neural modulations with

Informational masking and auditory attention [PDF]
Informational masking is broadly defined as a degradation of auditory detection or discrimination of a signal embedded in a context of other similar sounds; it is not related to energetic masking caused by physical interactions between signal and masker. In this paper, we report a systematic release from informational masking of a target tone in a nine-

Neural Mechanisms of Selective Auditory Attention in Rats (Dissertation) [PDF]
How does attention modulate sensory representations? In order to probe the underlying neural mechanisms, we established a simple rodent model of modality-specific attention.

Language Development in Preschool Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Boys
Background: the present study aims to assess language in preschool-aged Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) boys with normal cognitive quotients, and to establish whether language difficulties are related to attentional aspects or to the involvement of ...

Mechanisms for Allocating Auditory Attention: An Auditory Saliency Map [PDF]
Our nervous system is confronted with a barrage of sensory stimuli, but neural resources are limited and not all stimuli can be processed to the same extent. Mechanisms exist to bias attention toward the particularly salient events, thereby providing a weighted representation of our environment.

Model study of target discrimination in concurrent auditory events
With the development of automation technology in human‐machine interface, the traditional visual display no longer met the needs of complicated control systems, while auditory display has become an important part of human‐machine interface design ...
