Psychophysical and physiological evidence for fast binaural processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The mammalian auditory system is the temporally most precise sensory modality: To localize low-frequency sounds in space, the binaural system can resolve time differences between the ears with microsecond precision.

Statistics of the interaural parameters for dichotic tones in diotic noise ($N_0 S_\psi$) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Stimuli consisting of an interaurally phase-shifted tone in diotic noise -- often referred to as $N_0 S_\psi$ -- are commonly used in the field of binaural hearing.

Speech Comprehension and Its Relation to Other Auditory Parameters in Elderly Patients With Tinnitus

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2019
Deteriorated speech comprehension is a common manifestation of the age-related decline of auditory functions (presbycusis). It could be assumed that when presbycusis is accompanied by tinnitus, general hearing functions, and particularly comprehension of

Sensitivity to Interaural Phase in Older Hearing-Impaired Listeners Correlates With Nonauditory Trail Making Scores and With a Spatial Auditory Task of Unrelated Peripheral Origin

open access: yesTrends in Hearing, 2019
Interaural phase difference (IPD) discrimination upper frequency limits and just-noticeable differences (JNDs), interaural level difference (ILD) JNDs, and diotic intensity JNDs were measured for 20 older hearing-impaired listeners with matched moderate ...

Anatomical limits on interaural time differences: An ecological perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
Human listeners, and other animals too, use interaural time differences (ITD)to localize sounds. If the sounds are pure tones, a simple frequency factorrelates the ITD to the interaural phase difference (IPD), for which there areknown iso-IPD boundaries,

Speech Recognition Deficits in Presbyacusis: Links to Cortical Structural and Functional Alterations

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize speech recognition in presbyacusis and its associated neurophysiological and cortical structural features, and to explore structure‐function‐behavior relationships within the presbyacusis phenotype. Methods Thirty elderly patients with presbyacusis(HI) and thirty‐three healthy young controls(NH) completed a behavioral

Unveiling Otolith Mystery: Contemporary Testing Approaches and Their Clinical Significance

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Otolith is a critical component of the peripheral vestibular system responsible for detecting linear acceleration. Dysfunction of the otolith organs can lead to vertigo, balance disturbances, and gaze instability. By elucidating the physiological foundations and evaluating both current and emerging methods for assessing otolith ...

Binaural interference in lateralization thresholds for interaural time and level differences [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2010
Listeners discriminated changes in either interaural time differences (ITDs) or interaural level differences (ILDs) in one noise band (the target) in the presence or absence of an uninformative spectrally-remote second noise band (the interferer). The noise bands had center frequencies of 500 and 4000 Hz and bandwidths of 50 and 400 Hz, respectively ...

Detectability index measures of binaural masking level difference across populations of inferior colliculus neurons. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
In everyday life we continually need to detect signals against a background of interfering noise (the “cocktail party effect”): a task that is much easier to accomplish using two ears.
