Speech Comprehension and Its Relation to Other Auditory Parameters in Elderly Patients With Tinnitus

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2019
Deteriorated speech comprehension is a common manifestation of the age-related decline of auditory functions (presbycusis). It could be assumed that when presbycusis is accompanied by tinnitus, general hearing functions, and particularly comprehension of

Auditory Word Comprehension is Less Incremental in Isolated Words [PDF]

Neurobiology of Language, 2021
Abstract Partial speech input is often understood to trigger rapid and automatic activation of successively higher-level representations of words, from sound to meaning. Here we show evidence from magnetoencephalography that this type of incremental processing is limited when words are heard in isolation as compared to continuous speech.

Successful syllable detection in aphasia despite processing impairments as revealed by event-related potentials

Behavioral and Brain Functions, 2007
Background The role of impaired sound and speech sound processing for auditory language comprehension deficits in aphasia is unclear. No electrophysiological studies of attended speech sound processing in aphasia have been performed for stimuli that are ...

Disentangling syntax and intelligibility in auditory language comprehension [PDF]

Human Brain Mapping, 2009
AbstractStudies of the neural basis of spoken language comprehension typically focus on aspects of auditory processing by varying signal intelligibility, or on higher‐level aspects of language processing such as syntax. Most studies in either of these threads of language research report brain activation including peaks in the superior temporal gyrus ...

Comparing Clinically Applicable Behavioral and Electrophysiological Measures of Speech Detection, Discrimination, and Comprehension

Trends in Hearing, 2022
Effective communication requires good speech perception abilities. Speech perception can be assessed with behavioral and electrophysiological methods. Relating these two types of measures to each other can provide a basis for new clinical tests.

Neural correlates of individual differences in predicting ambiguous sounds comprehension level

NeuroImage, 2022
This study investigated brain activation during auditory processing as a biomarker for the prediction of future perceptual learning performance. Cochlear implant simulated sounds (vocoded sounds) are degraded signals. Participants with normal hearing who

Speech Perception in Noise Predicts Oral Narrative Comprehension in Children With Developmental Language Disorder

Frontiers in Psychology, 2021
We examined the relative contribution of auditory processing abilities (tone perception and speech perception in noise) after controlling for short-term memory capacity and vocabulary, to narrative language comprehension in children with developmental ...

PSYCHOACOUSTICS: a comprehensive MATLAB toolbox for auditory testing [PDF]

Frontiers in Psychology, 2014
PSYCHOACOUSTICS is a new MATLAB toolbox which implements three classic adaptive procedures for auditory threshold estimation. The first includes those of the Staircase family (method of limits, simple up-down and transformed up-down); the second is the Parameter Estimation by Sequential Testing (PEST); and the third is the Maximum Likelihood Procedure (
