Retrieval from memory: Vulnerable or inviolable? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We show that retrieval from semantic memory is vulnerable even to the mere presence of speech. Irrelevant speech impairs semantic fluency—namely, lexical retrieval cued by a semantic category name—but only if it is meaningful (forward speech compared to ...

Auditory and cognitive training for cognition in adults with hearing loss: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the efficacy of auditory training and cognitive training to improve cognitive function in adults with hearing loss. A literature search of academic databases (e.g., MEDLINE, Scopus) and gray literature (e.

Auditory object cognition in dementia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The cognition of nonverbal sounds in dementia has been relatively little explored. Here we undertook a systematic study of nonverbal sound processing in patient groups with canonical dementia syndromes comprising clinically diagnosed typical amnestic ...

Auditory verbal working memory as a predictor of speech perception in modulated maskers in normal-hearing listeners [PDF]

open access: yes
Purpose: Background noise can interfere with our ability to understand speech. Working memory capacity (WMC) has been shown to contribute to the perception of speech in modulated noise maskers.

Resonant Neural Dynamics of Speech Perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
What is the neural representation of a speech code as it evolves in time? How do listeners integrate temporally distributed phonemic information across hundreds of milliseconds, even backwards in time, into coherent representations of syllables and words?

Comparison of Working Memory in Hearing Loss and Normal Children

open access: yesپژوهان, 2012
Introduction: Hearing loss children may have problems in auditory-verbal memory due to impaired auditory input, but likely they have no deficit in visual-verbal memory because of intact visual input. In this study auditory-verbal and visual-verbal memory

Cognitive Control in Auditory Working Memory Is Enhanced in Musicians

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Musical competence may confer cognitive advantages that extend beyond processing of familiar musical sounds. Behavioural evidence indicates a general enhancement of both working memory and attention in musicians. It is possible that musicians, due to their training, are better able to maintain focus on task-relevant stimuli, a skill which is crucial to

Neural Dynamics of Phonetic Trading Relations for Variable-Rate CV Syllables [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The perception of CV syllables exhibits a trading relationship between voice onset time (VOT) of a consonant and duration of a vowel. Percepts of [ba] and [wa] can, for example, depend on the durations of the consonant and vowel segments, with an ...

Auditory objects in working memory include task-irrelevant features

open access: yesScientific Reports
AbstractObject-based attention operates both in perception and visual working memory. While the efficient perception of auditory stimuli also requires the formation of auditory objects, little is known about their role in auditory working memory (AWM). To investigate whether attention to one object feature in AWM leads to the involuntary maintenance of

Brain dynamics of the interplay between auditory selective attention and working memory during melody encoding

open access: yesScientific Reports
Working memory and attention are jointly needed in most everyday life tasks and activities. They have however mostly been studied separately. Here we investigate how auditory working memory—in a delayed-matching-to-sample task—and selective attention ...
