Moderate Reverberation Does Not Increase Subjective Fatigue, Subjective Listening Effort, or Behavioral Listening Effort in School-Aged Children

Frontiers in Psychology, 2019
Background noise and reverberation levels in typical classrooms have negative effects on speech recognition, but their effects on listening effort and fatigue are less well understood.

Measures of Listening Effort Are Multidimensional [PDF]

Ear and Hearing, 2019
Listening effort can be defined as the cognitive resources required to perform a listening task. The literature on listening effort is as confusing as it is voluminous: measures of listening effort rarely correlate with each other and sometimes result in contradictory findings.

The Autonomic Correlates of Listening Effort [PDF]

, 2019
For those with hearing impairment, listening in daily life communication requires excessive mental effort, even when using a hearing aid. This increased daily effort causes fatigue and reduced well-being. In recent years, researchers have utilised physiological measures to quantify listening effort; however, the chosen methods are seldom driven by ...

Listening effort and stress in tinnitus: a multidimensional approach. [PDF]

Front Neurosci
IntroductionThis study investigated the impact of chronic tinnitus on auditory perception, text comprehension, and physiological stress responses, with a focus on sex-related differences. The main objectives were to assess the influence of sex and stress on tinnitus severity, examine neurophysiological indicators of listening effort, and evaluate the ...

Listening effort and fatigue: Insights from pupillometry [PDF]

, 2014
Individuals with hearing loss commonly report feelings of fatigue and stress as a result of the mental demands of listening in everyday situations. Previous attempts have been made to characterise this phenomena by measuring listening effort objectively. One such objective measure of listening effort is pupillometry.

Listening Effort, Sleep Quality, and Digital Addiction: Exploring Their Links [PDF]

Brain and Behavior
Objective This study aimed to clarify the relationship between sleep quality and listening effort, as well as the relationship between digital addiction and listening effort. Methods Listening effort was assessed via a dual‐task paradigm.

Spatial separation enhances speech intelligibility but increases listening effort with session-dependent variability in pupillometric measures [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionThe current understanding of the cognitive load of listening effort has been advanced by combining speech intelligibility and pupillometry measures.

Objective Assessment of Listening Effort: Coregistration of Pupillometry and EEG

Trends in Hearing, 2017
Listening to speech in noise is effortful, particularly for people with hearing impairment. While it is known that effort is related to a complex interplay between bottom-up and top-down processes, the cognitive and neurophysiological mechanisms ...

Sensory representations and pupil-indexed listening effort provide complementary contributions to multi-talker speech intelligibility [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Multi-talker speech intelligibility requires successful separation of the target speech from background speech. Successful speech segregation relies on bottom-up neural coding fidelity of sensory information and top-down effortful listening.

Maturation of Listening Effort in Typically Developing Children. [PDF]

Indian J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg
The study aims to assess the maturation of listening effort (LE) in typically developing children. A total of 140 participants were equally divided into seven age groups: 7 to 7.11 years old, 8 to 8.11 years old, 9 to 9.11 years old, 10 to 10.11 years old, 11 to 11.11 years old, 12 to 12.11 years old, and adults aged 18 to 30.
