Neural Correlates of Dynamic Predictions and Prediction Errors in Response to Unexpected Silence and Sound

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 4, February 2026.
In two conditions, one of two self‐selected buttons predictably or unpredictably produced a sound or no sound. Prediction error responses to unexpected omissions and presentations of sounds in the predictable condition demonstrate trial‐by‐trial activation of dynamic predictions.

Active Task Engagement Enhances Auditory Brain–Behaviour Prediction From Single‐Trial EEG Compared With Passive Listening

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 4, February 2026.
This study investigates whether neural responses obtained under different task contexts provide reliable predictors of behavioural performance in an auditory discrimination task. Using EEGNet to classify single‐trial event‐related potentials, we analysed neural discriminability between standard and deviant stimuli during active task engagement and ...

Explaining the Musical Advantage in Speech Perception Through Beat Perception and Working Memory

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1556, Issue 1, February 2026.
Musical experience enhances speech‐in‐noise (SIN) perception, yet the mechanisms remain unclear. We tested 62 young adults using continuous measures of musical engagement, auditory and cognitive skills, and subcortical pitch encoding. Greater musical sophistication predicted better SIN performance, stronger working memory, finer beat perception, and ...

Physical Proximity With Social Support Regulates Vigilance to Threat: Evidence From Startle Reactivity During Emotional Stress Induction

open access: yesPsychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Access to social support during emotional stress is one of the most important factors for the successful regulation of stress‐induced psychophysiological activation, and is predictive of improved health and well‐being. In this research we wanted to deepen our understanding of this buffering effect, focusing on the modulation of the startle ...

Visual modulation of vestibular‐evoked balance response disturbed by posterior cortical atrophy

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 3, Page 1255-1271, 1 February 2026.
Abstract figure legend Summary of key findings. (A) Effect of vision on balance responses to vestibular stimulation in controls. Mean galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS)‐evoked response time‐course is shown without and with vision, illustrating how visual input ‘dampens’ the balance response.

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

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, 30 January 2026.
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

Spatial sound for computer games and virtual reality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this chapter, we discuss spatial sound within the context of Virtual Reality and other synthetic environments such as computer games. We review current audio technologies, sound constraints within immersive multi-modal spaces, and future trends.

Impact of Acute Versus Chronic Unilateral Hearing Loss on Head Movement in a Novel Binaural Task

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 1, Page 434-442, January 2026.
Individuals with single‐sided deafness (SSD) may develop adaptive listening strategies with head movement patterns to optimize monaural localization and speech‐in‐noise understanding. Granular understanding of adaptive behaviors may better inform rehabilitation for SSD.

Multi-Modal Perception for Selective Rendering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A major challenge in generating high-fidelity virtual environments (VEs) is to be able to provide realism at interactive rates. The high-fidelity simulation of light and sound is still unachievable in real-time as such physical accuracy is very ...

Predictive Processing Over the Course of Aging: Multiple Timescales of Effective Connectivity

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study used electroencephalography (EEG) and dynamic causal modelling to examine how predictive auditory processing and neural connectivity adapt over time and with age. Sixty‐three participants (ages 18–75) listened to tone sequences where deviant and standard roles reversed between contexts, probing prediction at multiple timescales (seconds to ...
