Vibrotactile-auditory interactions are post-perceptual [PDF]
Vibrotactile stimuli can elicit compelling auditory sensations, even when sound energy levels are minimal and undetectable. It has previously been shown that subjects judge auditory tones embedded in white noise to be louder when they are accompanied by ...

Auditory Processing Assessment in older people with no report of hearing disability
Summary: In the elderly, the results of central auditory pathways behavioral assessments are considered to be difficult to read because of the possible interference of peripheral auditory pathway involvement.

The auditory function in migraine model rats induced by postauricular nitroglycerin injection
ObjectiveThe mechanism by which migraines produce inner ear-related symptoms is not well understood. Previous studies have found that the latency of auditory brainstem response (ABR) in animal models of migraine has changed, but the threshold has not ...

Tone-in-noise detection deficits in elderly patients with clinically normal hearing [PDF]
One of the most common complaints among the elderly is the inability to understand speech in noisy environments. In many cases, these deficits are due to age-related hearing loss; however, some of the elderly that have difficulty hearing in noise have ...

Numerical investigation of the basilar membrane vibration induced by the unsteady fluid flow in the human inner ear [PDF]
For a deeper understanding of the inner ear dynamics, a Finite-Element model of the human cochlea is developed. To describe the unsteady, viscous creeping flow of the liquid, a pressure-displacement-based Finite-Element formulation is used.

Acoustic, psychophysical, and neuroimaging measurements of the effectiveness of active cancellation during auditory functional magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is one of the principal neuroimaging techniques for studying human audition, but it generates an intense background sound which hinders listening performance and confounds measures of the auditory response ...

Can the tinnitus spectrum identify tinnitus subgroups?
The tinnitus spectrum is a psycho-acoustic metric of tinnitus. Previous work found a tight relation between the spectrum and the tone audiogram. This suggests that the spectrum and the audiogram provide essentially the same information, and the added ...

Effect of hearing aids on auditory function in infants with perinatal brain injury and severe hearing loss. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Approximately 2-4% of newborns with perinatal risk factors present with hearing loss. Our aim was to analyze the effect of hearing aid use on auditory function evaluated based on otoacoustic emissions (OAEs), auditory brain responses (ABRs ...
