Proximal Binaural Sound Can Induce Subjective Frisson

Frontiers in Psychology, 2020
Auditory frisson is the experience of feeling of cold or shivering related to sound in the absence of a physical cold stimulus. Multiple examples of frisson-inducing sounds have been reported, but the mechanism of auditory frisson remains elusive ...

Binaural advantages in sound temporal information processing by neurons in the rat inferior colliculus

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
Previous studies on the advantages of binaural hearing have long been focused on sound localization and spatial stream segregation. The binaural advantages have also been observed in speech perception in reverberation.

Speech recognition in noise with active and passive hearing protectors: a comparative study [PDF]

, 2011
The perceived negative influence of standard hearing protectors on communication is a common argument for not wearing them. Thus, augmented protectors have been developed to improve speech intelligibility.

The Effect of Binaural Beats on Visuospatial Working Memory and Cortical Connectivity.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Binaural beats utilize a phenomenon that occurs within the cortex when two different frequencies are presented separately to each ear. This procedure produces a third phantom binaural beat, whose frequency is equal to the difference of the two presented ...

Relating age and hearing loss to monaural, bilateral, and binaural temporal sensitivity

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
Older listeners are more likely than younger listeners to have difficulties in making temporal discriminations among auditory stimuli presented to one or both ears.

Medial Superior Olivary Neurons Receive Surprisingly Few Excitatory and Inhibitory Inputs with Balanced Strength and Short-Term Dynamics [PDF]

, 2010
Neurons in the medial superior olive (MSO) process microsecond interaural time differences, the major cue for localizing low-frequency sounds, by comparing the relative arrival time of binaural, glutamatergic excitatory inputs. This coincidence detection

Toward an Individual Binaural Loudness Model for Hearing Aid Fitting and Development

Frontiers in Psychology, 2021
The individual loudness perception of a patient plays an important role in hearing aid satisfaction and use in daily life. Hearing aid fitting and development might benefit from individualized loudness models (ILMs), enabling better adaptation of the ...

Cross-Correlation in the Auditory Coincidence Detectors of Owls [PDF]

, 2008
Interaural time difference (ITD) plays a central role in many auditory functions, most importantly in sound localization. The classic model for how ITD is computed was put forth by Jeffress (1948). One of the predictions of the Jeffress model is that the

Factors Affecting Audiometric and Speech Perception Outcomes in Hybrid Cochlear Implant Recipients

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Hybrid L24 cochlear implant recipients maintained functionally aidable low‐frequency hearing through 5 years at a rate of 73%, with significant improvements in speech perception in quiet and noise, and EAS users showing superior speech scores compared to electric‐only users.
