A system for spatial hearing research [PDF]
MethodsX, 2022 The spatial hearing experiments can be simulated using high-fidelity headphones. But these simulated experiments do not account for individual variations and are difficult to investigate when the listener is wearing hearing devices. Hence, the free-field

Evaluating Spatial Hearing Using a Dual-Task Approach in a Virtual-Acoustics Environment [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 Spatial hearing is critical for communication in everyday sound-rich environments. It is important to gain an understanding of how well users of bilateral hearing devices function in these conditions.

Virtual reality games for spatial hearing training in children and young people with bilateral cochlear implants: the “Both Ears (BEARS)” approach [PDF]
Frontiers in NeuroscienceSpatial hearing relies on the encoding of perceptual sound location cues in space. It is critical for communicating in background noise, and understanding where sounds are coming from (sound localization).

Cortical mechanisms of spatial hearing. [PDF]
Nat Rev Neurosci, 2019 Humans and other animals use spatial hearing to rapidly localize events in the environment. However, neural encoding of sound location is a complex process involving the computation and integration of multiple spatial cues that are not represented directly in the sensory organ (the cochlea).

Superhuman spatial hearing technology for ultrasonic frequencies. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2021 AbstractUltrasonic sources are inaudible to humans, and while digital signal processing techniques are available to bring ultrasonic signals into the audible range, there are currently no systems which also simultaneously permit the listener to localise the sources through spatial hearing.

Spatial hearing adaptation in congenital and acquired single-sided deafness [PDF]
Frontiers in NeuroscienceIntroductionSpatial hearing depends on binaural integration of interaural time and level differences and monaural spectral cues. Single-sided deafness (SSD) disrupts this process, impairing localization and speech perception.

Spatial hearing training in virtual reality with simulated asymmetric hearing loss. [PDF]
Sci RepAbstractSound localization is essential to perceive the surrounding world and to interact with objects. This ability can be learned across time, and multisensory and motor cues play a crucial role in the learning process. A recent study demonstrated that when training localization skills, reaching to the sound source to determine its position reduced ...

The Correlation Analysis Between the Spatial Hearing Questionnaire (SHQ) and the Psychophysical Measurement of Spatial Hearing. [PDF]
Indian J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg, 2019 The aim of the present study was examining the relationship between a psychophysical spatial hearing test (spatial word in noise test) and Spatial Hearing Questionnaire. Sixty-six adults (18-40 years old) were divided in three groups: normal subjects, subjects with mild and moderate hearing loss.

Some varieties of Spatial Hearing [PDF]
, 2009 We provide some meta-theoretical constraints for the evaluation of a-spatial theories of sounds and auditory perception. We point out some forms of spatial content auditory experience can have.

Review on Spatial Hearing Processing Disorder and Its’ Rehabilitation Methods among Elderly in Iran [PDF]
Journal of Rehabilitation Sciences and Research, 2021 Background: The hearing system can detect the location of the sound source and help us pay attention to it. In the presence of the background noise, it helps detecting the desired signal (especially speech) and comprehend it.
