On the relations among temporal integration for loudness, loudness discrimination, and the form of the loudness function. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1996
Temporal integration for loudness was measured as a function of level from 2 to 60 dB SL using 2-, 10-, 50-, and 250-ms tones at 5 kHz. The adaptive 2I,2AFC procedure converged at the level required to make the variable stimulus just louder than the fixed stimulus.

Speech Intelligibility and Speech Naturalness while Speaking with and without Medical Mask

open access: yesJournal of Indian Speech Language & Hearing Association, 2023
Introduction: The COVID-19 situation has led to an increase use of medical mask for protection. Facial and respiratory PPE covering the mouth and nose have been reported to diminish Speech Intelligibility.

Estimated cochlear neural degeneration is associated with loudness hypersensitivity in individuals with normal audiograms [PDF]

open access: yesJASA Express Letters, 2022
In animal models, cochlear neural degeneration (CND) is associated with excess central gain and hyperacusis, but a compelling link between reduced cochlear neural inputs and heightened loudness perception in humans remains elusive.

Loudness, but not shot power, influences simple reaction times to soccer penalty sounds [PDF]

open access: yesPsihologija, 2018
Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate how ecological sport sounds (i.e., foot-ball impacts of soccer penalty kicks) affect simple reaction times.

Neural Representation of Loudness: Cortical Evoked Potentials in an Induced Loudness Reduction Experiment

open access: yesTrends in Hearing, 2020
Loudness context effects comprise differences in judgments of the loudness of a target stimulus depending on the presence of a preceding inducer tone. Interstimulus intervals (ISIs) between inducer tone and target tone of about 200 ms and above cause an ...

BINAURAL ADDITIVITY OF LOUDNESS [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, 1972
A definition of binaural additivity is given in terms of the theory of simultaneous conjoint measurement. Additivity is then tested and verified by a conjoint measurement procedure. Methods for deriving psychophysical scales from such procedures are discussed, and the experimental scales are compared with the usual ratio scales for loudness, derived ...

Loudness Functions and Binaural Loudness Summation in Bilateral Cochlear Implant Users

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2017
Loudness functions and binaural loudness summation was investigated in acoustically stimulated bilaterally implanted cochlear implant users. The study was aimed at evaluating growth of loudness functions and binaural loudness summation in cochlear ...

What is Noise Sensitivity?

open access: yesNoise and Health, 2022
Background: Noise sensitivity moderates the association between environmental noise exposure and annoyance and health outcomes. Methods: In normally hearing adults, we measured noise sensitivity in three ways: using the noise sensitivity questionnaire, a

Merging the Psychophysical Function With Response Times for Auditory Detection of One vs. Two Tones

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
The purpose of this study is to take preliminary steps to unify psychoacoustic techniques with reaction-time methodologies to address the perceptual mechanisms responsible for the detection of one vs. multiple sounds.

Perception of loudness changes induced by a phononic crystal in specific frequency bands

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2022
To study the influence of classical phononic crystal (PC) structures on the acoustical characteristics of a sound source, a combined acoustics/perceptual analysis is conducted on a PC specially designed to exhibit several spectral and wave vector ...
