Different effects of adding white noise on cognitive performance of sub-, normal and super-attentive school children [PDF]

, 2014
Objectives: Noise often has detrimental effects on performance. However, because of the phenomenon of stochastic resonance (SR), auditory white noise (WN) can alter the "signal to noise'' ratio and improve performance.

Pulsation threshold in the auditory nerve [PDF]

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1978
Response patterns of single auditory-nerve fibers are compared under two conditions. The first condition is similar to the stimulus condition customarily used to determine pulsation threshold psychophysically. A 100-ms duration signal at a fiber's characteristic frequency (CF) is presented at 10 dB above threshold at a rate of 5/s.

Genome‐Wide by Lifetime Environment Interaction Studies of Brain Imaging Phenotypes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores genome‐wide by lifetime environment interactions on brain imaging phenotypes. Gene‐environment interactions explain more phenotypic variance than main effects, pinpoint regulatory variants, and reveal exposure‐specific biological pathways.

Age differences in fMRI adaptation for sound identity and location [PDF]

, 2011
We explored age differences in auditory perception by measuring fMRI adaptation of brain activity to repetitions of sound identity (what) and location (where), using meaningful environmental sounds. In one condition, both sound identity and location were

Monday Morning Auditory Threshold in Weavers [PDF]

Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 1964
The view is questioned that 5.00 p.m. on Friday to 8.00 a.m. on Monday constitutes an adequate interval for the recovery of occupationally induced temporary threshold shift. Group mean pure tone thresholds were determined for a group of young weaving shed operatives on a Monday morning and compared with those obtained, from the same group, after a 16 ...

Interactions of Interaural Time and Level Differences in Spatial Hearing with Cochlear Implants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Differences in timing (ΔT) are weighted heavily compared to differences in loudness (ΔL) in binaural hearing with cochlear implants. Abstract Normally hearing humans can localize sound sources quite accurately, with minimum audible angles as small as 1°. To achieve this, these auditory pathways combine information from multiple acoustic cues, including

Theories of developmental dyslexia: Insights from a multiple case study of dyslexic adults [PDF]

, 2002
A multiple case study was conducted in order to assess three leading theories of developmental dyslexia: the phonological, the magnocellular (auditory and visual) and the cerebellar theories.

Neurons with stereotyped and rapid responses provide a reference frame for relative temporal coding in primate auditory cortex [PDF]

, 2012
The precise timing of spikes of cortical neurons relative to stimulus onset carries substantial sensory information. To access this information the sensory systems would need to maintain an internal temporal reference that reflects the precise stimulus ...

Single‐Nucleus RNA Sequencing Reveals Mid‐Gestational Neurodevelopment Features in the Superior Temporal Plane from Fetuses with Nonsyndromic Cleft Lip and Palate

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐nucleus RNA sequencing of mid‐gestation brains from fetuses with nonsyndromic cleft lip and palate reveals major disruptions in cell composition, cell‐to‐cell signaling, and gene regulation. The transcription factor MEF2C is identified as a central regulator of these changes and shows that lowering MEF2C impairs synapse formation, linking cleft ...
