Development of Auditory Selective Attention: Why Children Struggle to Hear in Noisy Environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Children’s hearing deteriorates markedly in the presence of unpredictable noise. To explore why, 187 school-age children (4–11 years) and 15 adults performed a tone-in-noise detection task, in which the masking noise varied randomly between every ...

Functional imaging reveals numerous fields in the monkey auditory cortex.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2006
Anatomical studies propose that the primate auditory cortex contains more fields than have actually been functionally confirmed or described. Spatially resolved functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) with carefully designed acoustical stimulation ...

Distribution of visual and saccade related information in the monkey inferior colliculus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2012
The inferior colliculus (IC) is an essential stop early in the ascending auditory pathway. Though normally thought of as a predominantly auditory structure, recent work has uncovered a variety of non-auditory influences on firing rate in the IC. Here, we

Control of echolocation pulses by neurons of the nucleus ambiguus in the rufous horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus rouxi [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
1. Horseradish peroxidase was applied by iontophoretic injections to physiologically identified regions of the laryngeal motor nucleus, the nucleus ambiguus in the CF/FM batRhinolophus rouxi. 2.

Cortical Speech Processing in Postlingually Deaf Adult Cochlear Implant Users, as Revealed by Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

open access: yesTrends in Hearing, 2018
An experiment was conducted to investigate the feasibility of using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to image cortical activity in the language areas of cochlear implant (CI) users and to explore the association between the activity and ...

Enhanced representation of spectral contrasts in the primary auditory cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2013
The role of early auditory processing may be to extract some elementary features from an acoustic mixture in order to organize the auditory scene. To accomplish this task, the central auditory system may rely on the fact that sensory objects are often ...

Music in the first days of life [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In adults, specific neural systems with right-hemispheric weighting are necessary to process pitch, melody and harmony, as well as structure and meaning emerging from musical sequences. To which extent does this neural specialization result from exposure

Involvement of the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamocortical loop in developmental stuttering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Stuttering is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that has to date eluded a clear explication of its pathophysiological bases. In this review, we utilize the Directions Into Velocities of Articulators (DIVA) neurocomputational modeling framework to ...

Category-specific responses to faces and objects in primate auditory cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2008
Auditory and visual signals often occur together, and the two sensory channels are known to infl uence each other to facilitate perception. The neural basis of this integration is not well understood, although other forms of multisensory infl uences have

Early Blindness Results in Developmental Plasticity for Auditory Motion Processing within Auditory and Occipital Cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
Early blind subjects exhibit superior abilities for processing auditory motion, which are accompanied by enhanced BOLD responses to auditory motion within hMT+ and reduced responses within right planum temporale (rPT).
