Aberrant Neural Entrainment to Word‐Level Speech Patterns in Fragile X Syndrome: Evidence for a Statistical Learning Deficit

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder, causes significant language and cognitive impairments. Statistical learning refers to the ability to extract patterns from sensory input through mere exposure and plays a central role in language acquisition.

The Effect of Online Parent Training With and Without Coaching Support on the Well‐Being of Families of Children With Neurodisabilities: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Families of children with neurodisabilities often face significant child behavioral challenges that can affect overall family functioning and well‐being. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) used family resilience theory as the investigative framework to examine the impact of an online parenting program designed to address child behavioral ...

Coding deficits in noise-induced hidden hearing loss may stem from incomplete repair of ribbon synapses in the cochlea

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2016
Recent evidence has shown that noise-induced damage to the synapse between inner hair cells (IHCs) and type I afferent auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) may occur in the absence of permanent threshold shift (PTS), and that synapses connecting IHCs with low ...

Guanylyl Cyclase A/cGMP Signaling Slows Hidden, Age- and Acoustic Trauma-Induced Hearing Loss

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2020
In the inner ear, cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) signaling has been described as facilitating otoprotection, which was previously observed through elevated cGMP levels achieved by phosphodiesterase 5 inhibition.

How 'hidden hearing loss' noise exposure affects neural coding in the inferior colliculus of rats.

Hearing Research
Exposure to brief, intense sound can produce profound changes in the auditory system, from the internal structure of inner hair cells to reduced synaptic connections between the auditory nerves and the inner hair cells.

‘Sometimes, I would look at my books and cry because I felt like I was left behind’: Understanding the learning of Indigenous girls during the COVID‐19 pandemic in the districts of Chongwe and Solwezi in Zambia

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Grounded in principles of epistemic justice, this article examines the educational impacts of Zambia's COVID‐19 school closures on Indigenous girls in two districts and highlights community‐led pathways for resilience. National responses prioritised broadcast and digital delivery but presupposed access to electricity, digital devices and ...

BDNF, NT-3 and Trk receptor agonist monoclonal antibodies promote neuron survival, neurite extension, and synapse restoration in rat cochlea ex vivo models relevant for hidden hearing loss.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Neurotrophins and their mimetics are potential treatments for hearing disorders because of their trophic effects on spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) whose connections to hair cells may be compromised in many forms of hearing loss.

Single‐subject designs in character education: Methods for rigorous, contextual, and practitioner‐led research

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Character education research is often constrained by blunt methodological tools. Surveys capture breadth without depth; case studies offer richness but lack replicability; and randomised controlled trials (RCTs), though indispensable at the policy level, are costly, disruptive and ill‐suited to everyday practice with individual pupils.

Children's food activism: Reflections on knowledge and responsibility

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Children as activists have become more prominent in recent years. Their activism is manifest in relation to conspicuously political topics such as Black Lives Matter, voting rights, being able to air their views or protesting against injustices related to race, culture and other identities. Less often, if at all, do children engage politically

Slight and hidden hearing loss in young rats is associated with impaired recognition memory and reduced myelination in the corpus callosum.

Behavioral Neuroscience
Slight and hidden hearing loss in children have been linked to cognitive and social difficulties, and yet the neurobiological mechanisms behind these issues remain poorly understood. Most animal models focus on severe hearing loss, leaving the effects of
