Longitudinal Evaluation of Listening Effort and Speech Perception in Noise in CROS and BiCROS Hearing Aid Users With Single‐Sided Deafness [PDF]

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology
Purpose The purpose of this study is to longitudinally investigate the effects of using CROS/BiCROS hearing aids on the listening effort and speech perception in noise skills of individuals with single‐sided deafness (SSD).

Influences of noise reduction on speech intelligibility, listening effort, and sound quality among adults with severe to profound hearing loss [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionNoise reduction (NR) algorithms have been integrated into modern digital hearing aids to reduce noise annoyance and enhance speech intelligibility. This study aimed to evaluate the influences of a novel hearing aid NR algorithm on individuals

Speech recognition in noise task among children and young-adults: a pupillometry study

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2023
IntroductionChildren experience unique challenges when listening to speech in noisy environments. The present study used pupillometry, an established method for quantifying listening and cognitive effort, to detect temporal changes in pupil dilation ...

Interdisciplinary Approaches to the Study of Listening Effort in Young Children with Cochlear Implants

open access: yesAudiology Research, 2021
Very early bilateral implantation is thought to significantly reduce the attentional effort required to acquire spoken language, and consequently offer a profound improvement in quality of life.

Eye movements decrease during effortful speech listening

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2023
AbstractPupillometry is the most used objective tool to assess listening effort but has several disadvantages. The current study explores a new, objective way to assess listening effort through eye movements. Building on cognitive and neurophysiological work, we examine the hypothesis that eye movements decrease when speech listening becomes ...

Exploring the Correlations Between Measures of Listening Effort in Adults and Children: A Systematic Review with Narrative Synthesis

open access: yesTrends in Hearing, 2023
Listening effort (LE) describes the cognitive resources needed to process an auditory message. Our understanding of this notion remains in its infancy, hindering our ability to appreciate how it impacts individuals with hearing impairment effectively ...

Brightening the Study of Listening Effort with Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy: A Scoping Review

open access: yesSeminars in Hearing, 2023
Listening effort is a long-standing area of interest in auditory cognitive neuroscience. Prior research has used multiple techniques to shed light on the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying listening during challenging conditions.

Measuring Listening Effort [PDF]

open access: yesEar & Hearing, 2014
The dual-task paradigm has been widely used to measure listening effort. The primary objectives of the study were to (1) investigate the effect of hearing aid amplification and a hearing aid directional technology on listening effort measured by a complicated, more real world dual-task paradigm and (2) compare the results obtained with this paradigm to

Combining Multiple Psychophysiological Measures of Listening Effort: Challenges and Recommendations

open access: yesSeminars in Hearing, 2023
About one-third of all recently published studies on listening effort have used at least one physiological measure, providing evidence of the popularity of such measures in listening effort research.

A Clinical Paradigm for Listening Effort Assessment in Middle-Aged Listeners [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
Listening effort (LE) has been known to characterize speech recognition in noise regardless of hearing sensitivity and age. Whereas the behavioral measure of dual-task paradigm effectively manifests the cognitive cost that listeners exert when processing speech in background noise, there is no consensus as to a clinical procedure that might best ...
